This morning Amy tricked me.
When I was cooking for my beakfast, Amy asked me a question " Am I moving?" while she was standing still and withoout moving her arm either. I was puzzled at first. I told her that I will decide later. If we like this new place we will stay and if we do not like it, we will move in couple of years. She told me it is not such move. She was asking if she is moving. I told her that she was moving because her blood is moving. her tummy was moving because it is digesting food and her lung is moving because she is breathing. She said the inside movement did not count. I told her that she was speaking, and so she is moving. She said this does not not count either because her foot does not move.
I did not know how to answer her question. I asked what kind of move she is meaning. I said to her she was not moving.
Finaly she told me that she is moving. I asked her why. She finally give me the answer "The earth is moving. We are standing on the earth. We are moving along with with earth."
She is a funny little first grader now after she jumped one grade from kindergarten.
