Khora's Little Green Friend

I have to share this one with you. The other day we were at our local fruit stand buying some fresh picked local peaches, yummy by the way, and while I was getting our fruit Khora found a little friend to play with. When I looked, over there she was with a big praying mantis on her finger. Well all was good until she wanted it off and she started shaking her hand and that guy must have just hunkered down good because he was not coming off. She was getting very frantic at this point and big brother Isaac was there trying to help her out of the pradicament by first trying to kick it off her hand, but luckily he caught himself and thought that his hand was probably the better choice. Khora was very shaken up over it but gratful to have it off. He didn't bite her or anything just clamped down with those praying hands and it just scared her good. I don't know if she'll be as willing to befriend the next one she sees though. We have seen them all over our yard this year. They are still our friends!
