Answering my daughter’s questions 1

My daughter is 4 and from time to time she “shots” me those questions I find difficult to explain to a 4 year old but I do my best to explain in a understandable way. Here’s one:
Catherine: Mom, how does the water goes from the sea into the clouds?
Me (thinking): Well, when it’s hot, a kind of steam of water comes out of the sea goes to the clouds, than the clouds have water.
Catherine (thinking): humm I got it, that happens while we sleep that’s why we don’t see it.
Me (relieved): yes that’s it.
Well, my answer was accepted and no more questions were asked.
I’ve always found that a nice long pause will usually bring them to answer their own questions, sort of gets us off the hook! LOL
