Good Question

On the way to work this morning, William asked, "Mommy, what makes the Earth spin around?"

I stuttered, "Hm. Well, uh, that's a good question William. I don't know what makes the Earth spin."

Then he offered his own answer: "Maybe it's gears."

Brilliant, huh?

This age is a great age to have a science degree! Nate and Alex are always telling people that it's getting dark because the earth is rotating.
