Fireflies/Lightning Bugs

Which do you call them?  I don't think it really matters what you call them.  To me, they invoke all sorts of memories of playing kickball and SPUD while we waited for the streetlights to come on.  That was always our signal it was time to come inside.

Tonight Emily worked hard on her habitat, so hard I wasn't sure there was going to actually be room for any bugs.  But she made it work.  Terry and I loved watching her experience this.  One of the best parts of parenthood is watching your kids make some of the memories you love from your own childhood.
