Loyacita, age 4: [during an evening thunderstorm] “Daddy, where does rain comes from?”
Me: “Well, you see…”
Loyette, age 5½: [interrupting] “It comes from clouds, [Loyacita]. Clouds are made of tiny water droplets, and when the water droplets get close to each other, they come together—sort of like magnets—and turn into bigger droplets. And when they get heavy enough, they fall as raindrops. When the raindrops are small, that’s called drizzle. When they’re bigger, that’s rain.”
Me: [mouth agape]
