Turning Off the Sun

Yesterday, Little B was running around the house exploring, when he came upon the side lights next to our front door. He stopped, so I went to see what he was up to (in hopes he wasn't climbing the stairs), and he looked at me and said, "Off." I said, "Buddy, the lights aren't on." He said, "Off" again and pointed to the sun.

Yup. My little man wanted me to turn the sun off.


I tried to explain to him that we can't do that, but he went to the light switches by the door and pointed to them, imploring me to turn the sun off.

I love knowing he has such an imagination and a curiosity of the world around him. And I love knowing that, had I actually been able to turn the sun off, he would have asked me to turn it right back on again.
