then this thing which had one huge leaf of the vine I had planted at charlies', and a huge 4 o clock leaf, within a day, it had pooped about 8 balls, ate the chinesebeanhicynth completely gone stem and all.. it was GONE, and it had folded the huge 4 o clock leaf in half over it, and kinda glued himself in there it felt like, at first the leaf was soft, two days later it was very hard and almost dry.. but not all the way shut..kinda like a hmmm.. fried chery pie, the half moon ones..
so, after we all decided I had killed it, I was going to dump it outside for the birds, and the leaf was kinda still the same, but this moth was there.. quite a majic act for the family to watch as they came over and was FORCED into conversation with MOM by me showing them the catpillar and then the morphing chamber as I called it.. LOLOLOL
so my youngest daughter, critter lover, lake frog killer ..heheh... went to get it out so I could take a pciture for BeckyG to see.. and it squirted this fluid out its backside.. and.. well.. I can't stop chuckling.. cuz it was weirdly funny, and after I convinced her it was just morphing juice, LOLOLOL, she wandered out front and came back in and said she let it go..
so, soon I will have more chew holes, lost edges, zig zag looking leaves, I know I will have a moth. a snow white one. couldn't see anything with the macros .. I couldn't get a better shot than this one inside, and the next one outside, and it was a nice memory made with my soon to be 21 year old youngest daughter. I know a few other mothers who have this strange relationship with their almost grown children.. half your baby, and half you when ya gonna grow up and move out kind of person, that you successfully raised without incident except in her case an almost fatal car crash. My bionic daughter.. who loves me because I love . And after all, I have always said, "be careful of what you give out in life, because you might just get it back"
