Falling Off Earth

Heather and I were just laying on the couch together. At first, we were just resting but then Heather starting telling me some knock-knock jokes. After that, we had this conversation:

Heather: I am glad that we live on top of the earth.

Me: Why?

Heather: So then we won't fall off. If we lived on the bottom of it we would fall off.

Me: What do you think happens to the people who do live on the bottom?

Heather: I think they must just fall.

Me: Hmmm. Interesting.

The topic took a sudden turn to this...

Heather: I want to be a space girl when I grow-up.

Me: That sounds pretty cool. You can definitely be that when you grow-up. Then you would be an astronaut.

Heather: Yeah. But I would want you to be one too and go into space with me.

Me: Hmmm. I am not sure if I would be able to go with you. You are a very smart girl, aren't you.

Heather: Yeah, I know.

I love it when we have cozy and quiet conversations like that. What a treat!
