Our July is amazing and wonderful. We have seen Monarch so many times visiting us and we have Monarch caterpillars and eggs here and there in our butterfly gardens in addition to all other amazing things. What else do we seek? I finished the monthly video and posted online yesterday. We also participated in the International Monarch Monitoring Blitz – Mission Monarch and other international Monarch research and gardening programs last year. All Monarchs naturally born on the eves of our home last year were very strong and healthy and flew to Mexico. Here is a cutie first-day little Monarch caterpillar in the butterfly garden that I developed completely on my own last autumn — from digging the garden bed to planting seeds and taking care of it. There are more than three caterpillars like this in our butterfly garden. Amazing!
In CMABA, all numbers, colors, letters and images are neutral. We like flowers and butterflies, so we do it. All colors, numbers letters and images are themselves and nothing else. Butterflies are butterflies; flowers are flowers themselves, nothing else. All colors and numbers are part of nature. We make social activities wonderful memories and experiences. In CMABA, we value real and nice relationship. Wonderful reality is our sweetest dream.
CMABA is a complete creation of my own and it is a great success. It is also our family’s joint efforts. My husband did some hard work of digging the flower beds and holes and paid for the gardening material and my child works with me from time to time under my guidance and direction. My workload in the organization is much more than a full-time job. CMABA also offers volunteer opportunities for people of all ages and from all walks of life.
Here is our beautiful blossom on July 28th in our butterfly gardens. Love it. We planted it this spring in mid-May. Beautiful. Let’s be grateful for all the wonderful gifts that Nature gave us in July as well as in the previous months. I will further upload more July photos on the organization website late on.
