The Moon and Eli

Tonight as we were getting the kiddos ready for bed 2 year old Eli started a cute conversation with Daddy about the moon. Here's what happened...

Eli: Bumped head, Daddy.

Daddy: You did?

Eli: Yeah, moon bumped me on head. (Brief pause) Moon onto sun.

Daddy: So you hit your head on the moon and knocked it into the sun?

Eli: Yeah.

Daddy: That could have cataclysmic consequences; you better be careful.

Eli: Oh.

Then after a few minutes he got out his tape measure and since he measures things in "dollars" and "bucks" (don't know where he got that from!) I asked him...

Mommy: So how big is the sun?

Eli: 14 bucks (pause) moon, 2 dollars
