How Do You Argue With This

So the other day my husband and Xander were having a conversation about the moon. This is stemming from the moon model my son got for his birthday. Keep in mind this is a five year old talking, it amazes me how this boy's mind things... anyway... here's the general gist of the conversation...

Xander says to my husband, 'I think a full moon should be called a half moon.'

Husband: Oh yeah? Why do you say that?

Xander: Because when we see a full moon we're only seeing half of the moon. We can't see the other side of the moon, so we only see once side of it.

Husband: Okay what would we call a half moon then?

Xander: A fourth moon because you're only seeing one fourth of the full moon.

Husband: That's pretty smart.

Xander: I know.

Isn't my son so modest? But seriously... his argument does make sense.

JOYFUL THOUGHTS

-I'm happy I decided to homeschool. It hasn't just been beneficial for my children... but I myself have reawakened my thirst for knowledge. I'm reading books I never would have even thought of if I wasn't working on certain things in school with the boys. And I would've had no idea what I had missed.

-I'm happy i can go into a toy store with my children and they don't expect us to walk out with a new toy each time. And they don't cry about not getting anything.
