That's My Boy!

Just two nights ago, Eric took Will to the Clarke Planetarium for a little one-on-one time. Will has been wanting to go all summer. The boys enjoyed the exhibits--Will especially enjoyed "walking" on the moon and Mars. After fun at the exhibits, Eric took Will to the show in the dome room. It turns out the daytime fun show for children wasn't showing in the evening, so Eric and Will got to listen to a young man give fact after fact about the universe, etc. Will was the youngest one BY FAR out of about 15 people. Of course Will had a million questions himself, like, "Is that the actual size of the Milky Way," etc, etc. When the young man finished his presentation ("dry" according to Eric), he asked if anyone had questions. Will blurted out, "When is the boring part going to be done?" Eric said you could hear quite a few snickers in the room! Sometimes Will's lack of "filters" drives me crazy, but sometimes the lack of them really keeps things interesting! Hmmm. . . I doubt his Kindergarten teacher has any idea who's coming her way!
