The Big Cookie in the Sky


Well my 3 year old daughter Chyenne walked with Hannah and I to the bus stop the other morning and she was very concerned for the moon.
As we are walking back to the house she looks at the sky and exclaims, "Look Mommy!! I see the moon!!" I nod and keep walking. I mean really to me it was just the moon. Well to her beautiful mind its much more. She continues looking up at while walking and holding my hand (so as not to trip), "Mommy!" Real concern was written all over that precious face. "The moon is broken!" I get a kick out of this one and barely suppress my giggle to explain, "It’s not broken. We just can't see all of it right now."
This satisfies (or maybe pacifies) her for a few more steps. Then she looks back at the moon and back to me again. "Who ate it?!" This time there was no way I could have kept that laughter in! I laughed all the way back to the house.
