Big Questions

So I am navigating through rush hour traffic and Maya lays the question on me, " How big is the world Dad?"
How do  you put that on into words. A follow up question was that she wanted to go into space, and wondered if I had ever been there, and why not? 
We drive by the mushroom farm every morning before school. There are always a lot of cars parked the the parking lot.  Yesterday she wished that she had a wand that would turn all the cars into mushrooms. That progressed into turning Ashton, the cat and everyone into mushrooms.  Did you know dad that mushrooms are nocturnal because they grow in the dark?
Maya is doing great in AVAC swim lessons. Held her breath for 7 seconds, has become comfortable with Kyle squirting her in the face.  Dad has fun trying to figure out new ways to retrieve is son from the women's bathroom.
 Ash was pissed because all I seem to do is tote him around and take Maya places. So we went to the museum.  Until we got to the door and it was closed for "cleaning" .  Another dad fail.
We had a great time in Monterey with the family.  Grandma successfully injected every meal with some sort of cheezy chip or candy, and now Maya has discovered Fruit Loops at the store.  Ashton just hung on the dog the whole time. Ashton now calls the cat Lucky, and for the longest time we thought he was just calling it doggy, but finally worked out the nuances between the words, and realized he knew the cats name.
