A brilliant batch of ladybugs landed in the Kids VT mailbox this month. Ten-year-old Ruby’s rainbow-colored critters fluttered in a deep blue sky with fluffy clouds and a tawny sun. Patrick, 4, set his traditional red-and-black beauties on green grass under a cheerful sun. Nora, 7, used glitter to jazz up her masterpiece, adding crimson hearts and a cotton-candy pink background.
