Good Question

Posted by mattbeagle on December 15, 2008

My son asked me this question while he was sitting in the bathroom and I was standing next to him:

Daddy, why does the world seem so teeny when it’s really so big?

It was one of those parenting questions to which I had no quick answer.  I gave him some lame answer about how he is kind of a small boy but sometimes seems like a really big boy.

I am still thinking over a good answer.  I am proud of him for asking such a good question.  I hope he manages to keep asking good questions throughout his life.
