The Moon's Not Broken Anymore

I have been teaching my daughter to recognize the shape crescent.  Lately we have seen a lot of crescent moons in books and in the sky. I always point it out and say, "Look, a crescent moon!"

Well kids say the darndest things.  The other day we were driving down the road and I was showing her the moon.  I said, "Look, Gaby, the moon!"

She said, "The moon's not broken anymore."

I said, "What?"

She repeated herself, "The moon's not broken anymore."

I couldn't resist and asked her, "What kind of moon is it?"

And of course her reply was, "It's a fixed moon!"

And to a 2 year old that makes perfect sense.
