Quesadilla

A few days ago we were at the park swinging and we heard a loud noise. Ryan asked what the noise was and I told him that it was a cicada. About 20 minutes later, Ryan was playing with something else at the park. He pointed to a tiny little bug flying around and said, "Mom...Is that a quesadilla?" I have to admit it took me about 30 seconds to figure out what he was talking about; he meant cicada.

Today we went to Sophia's house and as soon as we got out of the car Ryan heard the cicadas. He asked if the noise was a quesadilla bug. Then when we were playing in Sophia's yard her mom found a cicada on the ground still in it's shell. Sophia picked it up (YUCK!) and put it in her bug house. About an hour later it shed it's shell. Although it is a pretty nasty large bug...it was kind of neat :)
