one more important tidbit

I just thought everyone would want to know how the scary butterfly's trip through the dishwasher went. This was awhile ago, so I apologize for not updating you earlier. Right after he emerged from the dishwasher, there was no frightening laughter at all, so I felt a little bad for ruining Joshua's toy. A few hours later, however, when I was putting the butterfly back in the toy bin, it gave a faint cackle, surprising me quite a bit. A couple days later and this butterfly is back to its normal frightening self. So in a way it's good, but I really wouldn't mind if I didn't hear it laughing once or twice all by itself some nights. Joshua does love the little critter, though, so that's good.
