I’m Meant to Help
I love being outdoors.
I like to see butterflies.
They are so cool; I like that monarchs and all butterflies have four wings that they use to fly.
I like to think of moths as the cousins of butterflies.
So many come out at night – their long antennas are beautiful.
I want kids to know everyone can love butterflies.
I love the rainbow and I see it in the colors of different butterflies.
I like patterns and transformations and I see them in nature.
Being outdoors makes me feel happy.
I love the outdoors.
My mission in life is to help save the monarchs.
I’m meant to help.
I want people to care more about every animal and insect in the world.
I don’t like the earth getting sick.
I don’t want the planet to hurt, we can help it and help people care more about everything that lives here.
