It's Like A Flashlight

Sean has been fever free and I think his stomach bug was just a 24 hour event. He did start eating today, thank God.
We were in the car, today and Sean asked me where the sun was. I told him that it was out in front of the clouds because it was bright outside. He wanted to "see" it. I told him that we can see the sun as it goes behind the clouds at night and then the moon comes out. I told him that the sun spreads it's light like rays everywhere to make it bright. Sean then said, "just like a flashlight, mommy?" Hmmm..that's one smart boy!! He's making good analogies at 3.5. I was sure impressed.
