Avery and the butterfly
It was an early summer day. Avery was playing outside. It was fun to play at Ya Ya (Grandma) and Grandpa’s house. Avery liked climbing on the big rocks outside and playing pirate ship.
So Ya Ya was surprised when Avery suddenly came inside. She was holding something very gently in her hands. When Ya Ya looked more closely, she saw that it was a butterfly. It wasn’t moving, and one of its wings seemed to be broken or hurt. It didn’t seem to be able to fly.
“Will you pray for the butterfly, Ya Ya?” Avery asked.
