Morpho Azul

Playa Herradura, sun and sunburn. Jacqueline absolutely loved the birds, in particular what looked like like the magnificent frigate-bird. She pointed up at it and called out. She also loved the sand so much she ate some, more than i initially thought as evidenced by her diaper change this afternoon.
This morning at San Jose she was a wiggle worm so Ryan and I took turns walking out the open church doors to the side courtyard. She would walk around and reach for the large variegated leaves of the plants that lined the entrance. When walking back with the two big kids after receiving communion a large morpho azul floated in through the doors. As it it was so large landed on the tile floors you could hear it. It stood on the floor a moment and then fluttered up again over and around. Just as communion ended it floated back out the doors. Ryan said that he had seen it during the consecration as well, but I had been outside with Jacqueline trying to rock and calm her. Teeth are starting to show up but at 10 months old she is still adorable with her gummy smile. Still no glimpse of the toucans on campus.
