Have You Ever Seen a Cow Jump Over a Moon

“Have you ever seen a cow jump over a moon, grandma?”
Sweetest voice ever asks me.
No, I admit. 
“I have!” he says with high glee in his voice.
“What color was the cow?”
Gold.
“What color was the moon?”
Gold.
What color was the sky?
Blue
“Dark blue or light blue?”
I meant gold. It was GOLD!
“If the cow, the moon and the sky was gold, how did you see it?”
I have magic eyes.

This is so typical of kids; their minds travel in a whole different realm; a realm of the fantastic that just won't quit and boy, aren't we all glad!
