Mutations...

After a bath, Mommy was telling Hyrum about why we don't want to get sunburned because you might get skin cancer.
Hyrum: What's cancer?

Mommy: When your cells mutate.

Hyrum: What's mutate?

Mommy: It means to change like when something changes in a way it isn't supposed to.

Hyrum: How does "Scripture Power" go again?

Mommy, thinking the cancer discussion is over, sings the song, ending with "I'm changing how I'll live, I'm changing what I'll be."

Hyrum: So, if mutat is change, then you could sing that song with MUTATE in there instead of CHANGE, right?


He's a fast thinker, that one... You'll have to sing it for yourself and see how well it fits. :)

Hyrum: 5 months

Funny and smart! You've got a budding lawyer in your house it sounds like.
