Ladybug Luck For You
Photo quote de jour
Whether you believe it the folklore or not, lady bugs are the only bug I can think of that doesn't scare or creep out most people. As a child, my mother would sing me a lullaby about ladybugs and I've been fascinated with these flying polka dots ever since. Yesterday, while poking about the garden, I saw this beauty in her cozy nest and wanted to share my ladybug luck with you because you just never know, good luck hides in unexpected places.

Thanks for this, Layla. I have a special love for ladybugs too, and in fact just encountered about 3 in a row on a walk on Tuesday. I didn't know they were good luck and full of lore, how cool.
I like your style. I'm looking forward to your Cat Wisdom site too.

Love the coincidence here. Last week, a ladybug landed in the palm of my hand and I felt thoroughly grateful and blessed because of it. There is something so unique and inspiring about these lovely little creatures.
