The Moon

Pete loves the moon. He looks for it every night. He finds them in every book. If he sees one in the sky he makes sure everyone knows it's there, and looks at it. And keeps looking at it. It's weird because P. and I don't have any particular love of the sky or astronomy. In fact, we both think space exploration is kind of silly. If you ask Pete what he wants to be when he grows up he says fireman, or astronaut. And he wants to drive a bulldozer, golf cart and truck like daddy. He says, "someday." :)

This week there was an incredible moon in the sky. It was full, yellowish orange and huge. We all enjoyed watching it rise and staring at it in the sky above us.

Here is Pete, and his moon.
