Aidan and I went in the front yard last night. We live in a very dark neighborhood (no streetlights) with virtually no pollution so at night the sky is littered with stars. It's really beautiful. It led to this exchange:
Aidan: Mommy, when the sun goes down our planet is in outer space.
Mommy: I know. The sky looks really neat.
Aidan (to the sky and loudly) HELLO OUTER SPACE. I'M AIDAN AND THIS IS EARTH.
Mommy: Aidan not so loud, our neighbors are sleeping.
Aidan: (whispering) Goodnight outer space.
