Derek is turning five in September. Like most boys, he likes dinosaur, Legos, cars and superheroes. Recently, he started to be interested in human being’s body.One day, we read a book about human body. He learned how the white cells and red cells looked like and how they worked. Later on, when he ate breakfast, he shouted:” mom, I see. I see. The strawberry will change into red cells which would let us full of energy and milk will change into white cell which can protect us away from germs. Am I right? ”. “Hmm, that is a good point” I felt the his thoughts very cute “I guess so.. ”In another day, he asked me:” Mom, why the foods we ate so yummy but the pupu is so stinky?” “It is a good question” I searched in my brain to find an answer “There might be a squeezing machine in your tommy. It squeezed all the yummy juice to your body and leave trash as pupu.”More and more I was attacked with new questions like:Mom-why our eyes are apart to each other but the things we saw were stick together?Mom-Why people’s sound are different?I am so happy to hear such questions and, in the meanwhile, it is a real challenge for me to answer such questions. Every time, when I was thinking how to explain to him, I started with “It is a good question”. Derek caught that very soon. Every time, when he heard it, he often softly signed: “You always say it!”Dear son, you never know how mom is proud of you. Every question you asked is so fantastic for me.
