Cricket Jailer
We have been inundated with crickets lately. At dusk, you can't walk on the sidewalk without hitting a couple, even if they just jump and bounce off your leg. I like them a lot better than cockroaches. Henri loves them. Her favorite thing to do is go out onto the balcony and chase crickets into the house. I'm not sure why they aren't as good on the balcony, but she wants them all inside. Maybe she hopes to play with them after we've gone asleep. She's at her very happiest when she has chased a half a dozen inside. She sits in the middle of the floor, gazing at all the crickets walking around her. It's like she is the cricket warden or something. Except for the part where she starts devouring them...
