In Which Liam Cuts To The Chase

Liam: "Mommy, was the world built?"

Me: "Hhhhhmmmmm?"

Liam: "You know, the world. How was it made?"

Me: "Well, the plants and animals grow, and the buildings are built by people."

Liam: "No. The world under the plants and animals. What about it?"

Me: "You mean the ground? The Earth? Where did that come from?"

Liam: "Yes."

Me: "Do you want the Biblical or the scientific explanation?"

Liam: "I just want the one that is actually right, Mommy."

Me: "Oh."
