Independence Day Insight from M

I was explaining what Independence Day was to 5yo M on the way home, in traffic.

M: What’s Independence Day Mama?

ME: 400 years ago, the Spanish came and said our country was theirs.  Many years later, we told them that they can’t rule our country anymore.  We’re celebrating that day.

M: So they left?

ME: Yes.

M: Did they leave because they thought it would be traffic forever?

 

She could be right.
