Marco Polo

I felt like a good mami this week. Our Princess and I were reading a book about space and she was asking me about the sun. I'm not sure how it came about, but we ended up in the bathroom with a candle and an apple, which I had drawn a not-to-bad rendition of the globe on, on a shish kabob skewer. I explained how the earth revolved around the sun and rotated. I explained to her that while the sun was shining on South Carolina, it was night time in China. I thought it was interesting and she had fun turning it around the "sun" but figured that was all she would remember.
Tuesday morning, on the way to school, we were going down Ladson road and looking at the beautiful sky as the sun came up.
Our Princess says "I guess its nighttime in China now."
I think I like this!
