Just hanging out

My son called me to join him in the hammock, so I did. As we stared up at the sky, he said, "Look at all the clouds."

There weren't any clouds to be seen.I pointed out that weren't any clouds and said that the sky was such a beautiful blue.

He answered back "Look at all the clouds."

He changed the conversation a little bit. "The sun is really bright."

The sun was hidden behind the garage, so it wasn't very bright at all.  I pointed this out to him.

He replied, "The sun is really bright."

For the next few minutes we just lay together in the hammock, staring at all the non-existent clouds, and shades our eyes from the sun that wasn't very bright. Then, unable to lie still any longer than any other six year old, my son got up and tore off across the back yard.
