Mikey, I love lady bugs. There are so cute, and good for your garden.

This year at my school, there was a nest of ladybugs, and when the weather was warm they were all over the place.

The teachers did not like them flying in their hair, and the principal wanted to get the exterminator, but I said NO! He listened and the ladybugs were allowed to fly away.
