Why does the moon changes its shape daily?

It doesn't: Remember, the moon is orbiting us, while we orbit the sun. When the earth gets between the moon and the sun, we cast a shadow (as the moon's light is actually the sun's light reflected). Because our relative positions are changing each day, the shadow we cast on the moon increases and decreases each month, making it appear to wax and wane.
