Eclipse

As most people know, there was a total lunar eclipse yesterday. Beautiful!

The last time I saw one was eight years ago and I was pregnant with Alina. This was the girls' first.

We observed it from the beginning when the moon began to darken, until it was shining bright. Alina said the moon looked like a boat when less than half of it was shining and she was excited to watch its "transformation".

And Laura, well, she didn't have a clue about what was happening, but she kept pointing at it and saying "moo".
