Can a worm evolve into a bunny?
I thought it a bit suspicious that our resident snail, aka "The Gaffer" was able to metamorphosize – overnight- from a snail into a worm. Her latest trick defies all logical evolutionary science. But, since there are those out there who deny evolution altogether, perhaps the fact that Sherman, my squirmy little worm has transformed into …. Whitey the Bunny, a snuggle-bunny in fact.
This bunny travels with carrots, especially when out on her scooter, which is still an exercise in the oddest form of coordination, if you can even call it that, that I have ever seen.
It speaks Bunny, which is about as intelligible as Wormish was but a little less guttural in sound. Whitey even speaks French Bunny which has many repeptive sounds that are reminiscent of the English, "we, we we…"
This Bunny likes to hope through the aisles at Loblaws and hide behind the bread section twitching its nose.
The worm had no arms and feet and the bunny seems to be fairly self-sufficient in those areas, which is a nice treat, but the bunny is fast and skittish and the obstacles to our daily life that have been removed with this metamorphosis into a self-propelling creature, have been replaced by the speed and agility of the ever elusive snuggle bunny.
I officially take back any frustration I may have had with Sherman and her worminess and can only hope that our next adventure, which should be in another 6 months or so, will be with a turtle so that Mommy Turtle will be able to keep up.

LOL, too cute. I love these little imaginers…my 7-year old today wrote me a note, which she handed over full of reluctant embarrassment, that said; “I want to be Draco Malfoy when Perfesser Moddy turned him into a ferrett. Long white and skinny.” So we had a ferret in the house for a few hours. But she’d kill me first and then die of embarrassment if she knew I’d told anyone, so keep it hush-hush, okay?
