today harper, calvary, kyle's mom, and i went for a walk and found a couple of caterpillars. on the way home i teased harper for not letting the caterpillar crawl on her and she replied, "if calvary was a caterpillar i would let him crawl on me." sweet? i'm not sure. i then told her that caterpillars turned into butterflies and she asked how such a thing could be possible. i tried to explain that when a caterpillar knew it was time to change they would wrap up in a really tight blanket called a cacoon and inside they would change into a butterfly. we continued our drive and as we passed a pasture full of cows harper asked, "do you know where milk comes from?" she then continued to explain that when a cow pees it wraps itself up in a tight blanket called a "catcoon" and changes itself into milk and "then we drink it." oddly enough...even believing that milk is actually created from the process of urine metamorphosis she shows no signs of disgust for the product...
got milk?

A catcoon, that's classic! Jonathan and I truly enjoyed your story.
