Metamorphosis


Grandma sent two monarch caterpillars home with us last week. They've spent the last few days scarfing down milk weed and then finally crawling to the top of their tank to hang upside down in preparation for the changes to come.

This morning Big Girl and I watched in awe as one of them shed it's skin and wriggled into a chrysalis. The other is soon to follow.

Nature is so cool!
