On the way home, we were all quiet and the kids were getting sleepy (finally after Ruby cried the whole time there and back- she is so not a fan of the car seat). Kai was watching the moon and he said, "How does the moon move?" Joe told him the big secret that the moon doesn't actually move, but we do. Kai replied, "No, it must move from neighborhood to neighborhood so each and everyone can see it." Later, after I read him some bedtime stories, Kai told me that the moon needs to move to say good-night to everyone.
It made me smile thinking of this moon traveling to each block to each house to say good-night. No offense, Joe, but I think I like Kai's explanation better.....
Good night.

My four year old nephew, Will, had the same question last night as we were driving home. He was fascinated.
We did so much turning that he never knew where it would pop up again from behind the trees.
My favorite line from him was that the moon must have eaten a lot. That's why it was so full!
