BG: LG, what do you make of this cool show we are watching about astronomy?
LG: hmmmmmm....well.....i am trying to learn things from it.
BG: I think the images are beautiful.
LG: You can see the sun with a telescope. I am going to go to the moon. YOu can make it to the moon, it is easy. What planet can you not make it to?
BG: You could probably get to maybe one.
LG: Yeah. I think that this telescope can probably look at a lot of stars, but probably not the sun.
BG: You know that the sun is actually a star?
LG: No.
BG: Yes, it is.
LG: and why can it be a star if it is so big.
BG: Because it is so close compared to other stars. It is like looking at a baseball that is right in front of your face, then seeing the baseball far away in the yard.
LG: If you actually got to it and you could see it, it is probably about 13 light years away. inside the earth is probably hotter than the sun.
BG: hmmm....I don't think so. The sun is wicked hot.
LG: NOT!
BG: YOT!
LG: lol
BG: So, do you want to get a telescope?
LG: YES!
BG: Maybe we can go to grandpa's and use his
LG: YYYYYYYYYESSSSS!
BG: Good night buddy.
LG: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
BG: Hey, you remember the band Switchfoot?
LG: no
BG: You remember, "when I look at the stars, I see someone else." Do you know who that "someone else" is?
LG: Who?
BG: He is singing about looking at all of creation and the wonder of it all.
LG: Let me guess, its God?
BG: Right.
LG: Sigh...
BG: What is the matter?
LG: I don't want to go to bed.
BG: When do you think about God, LG?
LG: Not very often.
BG: Hmmmmm...why?
LG: Because I am doing a lot of things!
BG: Really? Like what?
LG: Just stuff, like school work.
BG: So, you aren't thinking about God very much because mommy has you doing school work all the time?
LG: It isn't your fault mom, dad is always joking around.
BG: Well, it isn't my fault. Nothing ever is....
LG: Oh brother, yeah right.......
BG: Ok, so you never think about God?
LG: When i am praying i do.
BG: Is that the only time?
LG: some other times...
BG: now you are just rambling....good night
LG: Good Night.

LG, Thanks for taking the time to do this before you go to bed. We like to hear what you are thinking about. It's exciting to open up your blog page and see another new post.

I think your mom knows a lot about the sun. She's the one who told me that if a person gets close to the sun they'd die because it's too hot. She probably doesn't remember that, but it left an impression on me.
man...this really is one of my favorite blogs to read. I enjoy reading about your thoughts and conversations.
I like looking at the stars, too.
