Earth

I took Emily and Bailey out to look at the moon tonight; it was a spectacular harvest moon and was absolutely beautiful.  Also, visible next to the moon was Jupiter (although I didn't know this at the time--we had to go in and look up what planet was currenlty visible from our location).  Anyway, I said, "Hey, guys, see that super bright star next to the moon?  Well, that's not a star; it's a planet!" 

Emily replied, "Is it Earth?" 

Me, trying hard not to laugh: "No, sweetie, we're ON Earth.  I don't know which planet it is--we'll have to go look that up." LOL :)
