I overheard this conversation between Ryan and the dog this morning (OK, so I’m using the term ‘conversation’ loosely)…
Ryan: What’s the matter, buddy? Looking for Mama?
Sundance: …
Ryan: She’s just in her room changing.
Sundance: …
Ryan: Oh, don’t worry, she’s not metamorphosing. She’s just changing her clothes.
Sundance: …
It cracked me up… first, that she even went there, and second, that she got the word right (I had to look it up to be sure). I think I could use a little metamorphosis right about now. I’d like to spin my caterpillar self up in a cocoon and stay there for a few weeks, emerging as a beautiful butterfly. Of course, with my luck, I’d probably get eaten by a crow… or end up splattered on some SUV’s windshield.
Yeah… maybe I’ll just stick to changing clothes. Sigh.

This is such a wonderful funny post, in so many ways! I did not even know a word like that existed. You have a talented and smart daughter, but she takes after her mom, I am sure. ;)
Oh my God! Thank you my brilliant goddaughter for the biggest laugh I've had all weekend!
(1) She sounds a great kid, I'd keep her if I was me.
(2) Metamorphosing sounds much nicer than transmogrifying.
(3) You mean you are not a butterfly already? You mean that there is better to come? Bloody hell!
Too funny!!! With my kids watching these cartoons, when my baby was 4 I asked him a question and he said, "Sorry mom. I am suffering from short term memory loss." WTF? That was 8 yrs ago and his vocabulary is more advanced than mine. jerk. Going to watch cartoons now.
What? You could get even better? I'm sure Sundance was truly worried though. Kudos to Ryan for talking him down.
that is so cute. Sundance must have been relieved :-) Kids say the darndest things.
Thanks, guys :). She is funny, yes.
H and Lee... first, awwww, shucks. Second, all I can say is that I HOPE I get better! Geez!!
Haha! That's hilarious. :)
Also, stick to the changing of clothes...it's far less dangerous.
