To Catch the Moon

Last Wednesday, even after receiving awful news, I still managed to catch part of the eclipse.  Dawson and I sat next to the window and stared up at the moon.

“Dawson, do you see the moon?” I asked.

“Uh-huh!  Mommy, it’s a pretty nice moon.” he replied.

“Do you see what is happening?  That’s called an eclipse.”

“A clips? Oh, Mommy that’s a nice clips.”

“Yes.  Don’t you wish we could reach out and touch the moon?” I asked.

“No, Mommy.  We can’t catch the moon.  We need a bigger net.”

Not only that, kiddo, but a net with a very long handle.

  1. We had talked about the eclipse earlier in the day and planned to watch it, but I forgot. Julia didn’t, though. She was so excited to point it out and the whole family took a few minutes to look. She was really impressed. It was a great moment.

  3. Leslie, I bet it was a great moment. Julia is adorable. :)
