This Julia reminds me of Juli

This brilliant orange butterfly, Julia Heliconian, Dryas julia (my gallery link) sometimes reminds me of my beaming special needs daughter, Juli, who died of kidney failure in 1997. She too was brilliant, hyper-active and unpredictable! 🙂 And only parents of other special needs children know what I mean. 🙂 She was the only true love in my life at that time and I will always miss her! Pura vida!

  1. Charlie what a wonderful and sweet comparison to Juli! This butterfly is beautiful and energetic just like her. I know you miss her. She was a special and blessed part of your life.
    Love you big brother!
