Happy Birthday, Eric Carle!

Today is Eric Carle's birthday. While we were on our walk this morning Jack and Grace gathered several leaves that have been chewed through by some very hungry caterpillars. Once we arrived back home Grace glued the leaves onto a white paper and added a caterpillar. Grace sang Happy Birthday to Eric Carle several times and we have Jack and Grace's caterpillar picture prominently displayed in our home in order to honor Eric Carle's special day!

Eric Carle would love how you celebrated his Birthday. What a wonderful idea...to find caterpillar holes!
I LOVE the way Grace wanted Eric Carle to come to her house for his birthday!!
I miss you, Grace very, very much.
Love, Maddy

Grace, I hope that you see all the butterflies that enjoyed these leaves as caterpillars. What a beautiful sight all those butterflies would make!
Love you, love you, love you,

Got Gracie, Jack & Eve?
