Ladybug Release

Every year Daybreak holds a ladybug release at one of it's community gardens. Although we don't have a garden this year, we went and picked up a few hundred ladybugs for Papa. These little critters eat the aphids that like to reside in gardens and flower beds so we figured they would be a perfect addition to Papa's garden. After we bought the ladybugs we couldn't resist letting Naomi play with a few of them. She loved watching them crawl on her hands, pants, and in the grass, and helped release them into Papa's garden a few days later.
