Good thing the stars squiggle around...

At 9:30 tonight I heard a little voice... "Mommy?"  "Yes, Lincoln..."  "Come here..."  "What do you need, buddy?"

Lincoln:  "Ummm.... scientists... they have tried to figure out why the sun doesn't fall on the earth..."  Me:  "And?"  L: "I think I have it figured out..."  M: "How does it work?"  L: "The stars squiggle around up there to keep themselves up... that must be what the sun does, too."  M: "Hmmm..."

I guess that is as good of a reason as any to still be awake - there are lots of important things to figure out when you are 6 years old.  That and waiting for dad to get done taking his shower so you can get rocked to sleep.  :)
