little boys are made of...

grubby hands, caterpillars, snails and lovely, dirty, orange fingernails (looks like we are rewriting the classics!).

This little caterpillar was Artie's best friend this afternoon. He was held and air-kissed. He was named Greeny because he was, to quote my young man, 'green, not black' . He even got to go for a ride in a Playmobile wagon.  We have released him into the wild, I hope he was not too traumatised by all the lovin' he got today!
