Legs Riddle

[CSquared42]

So...I got the answer to this riddle on a hunch, but I'm not sure exactly what the real answer is. Can someone explain to me what starts on four legs in the morning, two legs mid-day, and three legs in the evening?

The answer is man. Morning = the beginning of a human's life, which is a baby crawling on four legs. Then, it progresses to a middle aged man in mid-day or middle of life walking on two legs, until the evening of life when the human is an old man, who uses his cane and legs (three legs) to walk.

This is also the riddle of the sphinx from the play Oedipus Rex.

This is also the original riddle of the sphinx from Greek Mythology.

Any one of those will do the trick basically. I created a baby and that did it.
