space geeks

I posted on facebook about Liam and Ant freaking out the other night. For those who missed it

We were telling a silly story to the kids about waiting for the mothership to collect us, when both boys burst into tears, telling us they didn't WANT to leave the planet for our home world... it took at least 10 minutes to calm them down.

we then had an exercise of "what is real and what is not". They were both horrified to learn that tie fighters are NOT real, nor are laser guns. And they demanded to know why the space shuttle is real if the millennium falcon is not.
So clearly we are space geeks. But I never anticipated Liam informing me tonight that when the boys were in my belly, I was dropped onto the planet from space into this house and that is how we all got here.

Anthony listened to him tell me this, and nodded sagely "Yes, and I pushed your belly to get out."
