Due to Sophia's barfing episode, we had camped last night in the living room with bedsheets. Anjali was very intrigued by this change of venue and didnt make a fuss about turning off the lights
Anjali: Mummy, we are camping.
Me: Yes.
Anjali: We will turn off the lights.
I brought a book.
Anjali: Mummy. I am very tired, lets turn off the light and camp.... (a minute) Ok, after we read this book, we'll turn off the light and camp
The lights got turned off.
Anjali: mummy, it is dark. The sun has gone to Romania?
Me: Yes. The sun is already in Romania and it will soon go to America.
Anjali: The sun will go to America and then to Romania?
Me: No. the sun will go to Romania first
Anjali: Mummy, I think you are saying the wrong thing. America is the first (Question: Is she saying this or did someone tell her?)
I know I said something about earth and newzealand being first, but cant quite remember.
Then after a while
Anjali: Mummy, when it is day, the stars will go to Romania?
Me: Yes. or rather, Romania will go to the stars. The earth goes round and round and Romania will face the stars.
Anjali digested this and then: Mummy. Our building is moving?
Me: What makes you think so?
Anjali: Our building is moving and I think it will fall down.
I was trying hard to keep a straight face and thanking the dark.
Anjali: If the building is tall until the sky, it will fall down when it moves.
Anjali: Mummy, we are camping.
Me: Yes.
Anjali: We will turn off the lights.
I brought a book.
