Delighted squeals had Sara smiling behind her camera as she snapped a picture of her daughter and husband. Grissom was transferring a fuzzy caterpillar onto their daughter's hand as butterflies passed by her head. The insect was inching its way up her arm making the entire family giddy. Sara kept snapping pictures as they wound their way through the Bellagio's botanical gardens.

When a huge Monarch Butterfly landed on Grissoms' butt as he bent over to point something out to Betsy, Sara snapped a picture that would hold a place of honor on her desk.

A brand new copy of Eric Carle's classic "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" had been purchased in the gift shop along with a new backpack covered in butterflies, and now Betsy was rapidly explaining how she wanted to raise butterflies when she grew up. Sara didn't have to even take her eyes off the road to know Grissom's smile was huge, but she did sneak a quick glance at him when they stopped at the next intersection. She could practically hear his thoughts on how to turn their daughter to the world of entomology running through his mind.

She just hoped he wouldn't point out that caterpillars did not in fact eat apples or salami or pizza or ice cream.
