My little Astronaut

This year for halloween, Nathan picked out an Astronaut costume. He has been badgering me every day about being able to wear so I gave in. Pretty cute, huh. Well, once I got him in the suit and the boots on, he says "OK...let's go to outer space now". I thought it was just a funny make believe thing so I let it go and then he asked again. So I laughed and told him that we couldn't go to outer space and he started crying. Oh my, he was serious. So I explained that we couldn't go to outer space because we didn't have a spaceship (I thought he would understand that, and he did) and his response was "there is a spaceship at the mall, let's go to the mall". It was so hard to explain that this wasn't going to work and eventually he just gave up on it.
By the way, there really is a spaceship at the mall. It's the little NASA one that you put a dollar in and go for a short little bumpy ride.
