A Word from My Little Sage
"Mommy - everyone can see molecules. They just can't see them one at a time."
There's a nugget of wisdom in there somewhere... :)
Yes, that’s a keeper! Reminds me a lot of the 2-3 year old I knew who came home from the nursery school playground saying: “Mutti, Sand ist kein Sand - lauter kleine Steine!” (Mommy, sand isn’t sand - it's a lot of little rocks!)
Darn that's deep!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it? :)

ReplyDeleteCute! (And smart!)
ReplyDeleteIt's true! Everything you look at is made up of molecules. You see them in the aggregate, not one at a time.
ReplyDeleteAwesome.
