The Brain of Dane

I'm ok with kids thinking outside of the box, but the brain of Dane has taken it a little bit too far. I hope I don't jinx myself by writing this, or even thinking it, but I'm figuring out that Dane likes to think about heaven. The other night he asked me all about the dinosaurs and extinction...when he figured out that the dinosaurs are in heaven, he said, "So, when I am a great grandpa and I go to heaven, I can see the dinosaurs?" I said yes and he said, "I can't wait to see those dinosaurs mom." I told him that he certainly could wait and to stick around with me for a while (freak out freak out)......Especially that is freak out material after he told me last week, "Mom, if I was invisible, you couldn't see me. But I would still be here." Thanks, but no thanks, ghostie. ooooo shivers......Tonight we were sitting at the dinner table, and he looked out the windows to the back yard and said, "Look at that beautiful earth!" in total amazement as though he had never seen it before. He proceeded to tell me his plans to go in a rocket far far far away from earth into space; my initial response was to protest, but then I decided to go with it and asked him to please send me a letter from space. His response, "OK.... a D!!"  

A little freaky, a lot cute, and a very revealing glance into the workings of the unearthly brain of Dane.
