What happens when the moon is waxing?

when the moon is said to be "waxing" it basically means that it's getting bigger. the sun reflects off of more of its surface that is visable to the earth. from the new moon, it slowly becomes a waxing crescent, then waxing gibbous, to eventually a full moon. then begins "waning" or getting smaller until it's back to the new moon again.

If you wish to have more information on the subject and even a moon phase calendar click on the website that I linked below, it also has more links to other websites about the moon.
