Gravity

As we were driving home from picking Madisen up from school she asked me,

"Mom, so the eartf(earth) is round like a ball, so how can we drive on it? Because we would fall off and be upside down?"

Hmmm....I wasn't quite sure how to answer this as I had a brain *toot.

I said, Well the earth is so big, that it's like it's flat.

Madi: But it's not flat so how come we don't fall off.

We have gravity to pull us down.

Madi: Oh, ok. (like that made all the sense to her.)

Those round things...

Madisen asked me last night, "Mom, what are those things?" pointing at my shirt.

I said, "What things? This picture on my shirt?"

Madi: No, those round things on you?

Me and Ryan finally getting what she is talking about and trying not to laugh...."Those are called breasts. Every girl gets them when she gets older."

Madi: Well, why?

Me: Well, because that's how girls are made. Breasts are there to feed our babies when they born. They produce milk.

Madi: How come boys don't have them?

Me: They just don't. Only girls

Madi: What do you do with them?

Me: Well, like I said, they are there to feed babies milk. When a mom has a baby milk comes out of them and feeds the baby. And when you get bigger and older like mommy and have a baby you will get them too.

Madi: Oh.

100 Jelly Beans=Fat

I picked up Madisen from school yesterday and I was talking with her about greater and less than. I would asked her things like what number is greater 5 or 7 and she would tell me.

I then asked her what is greater 99 or 100. She said 99.

I said, "would you rather have 99 jelly beans or 100??" (thinking she would rather have 100, what kid wouldn't want more candy, right?) 

She said, "99 jelly beans."

I said, "Madi 100 jelly beans is more or greater than 99." 

She said, "I know! BUT 100 jelly beans will make you FAT!"

Heaven
