Life of the Sun

July 26, 2006

Daddy: [reading a book] The Sun will expand and swallow up the Earth in 5 billion years.
Po: I don’t want the Sun to swallow the Earth.
Daddy: It’ll happen long after you’re dead.
Po: But please, I don’t want the Sun to swallow the Earth.
Daddy: When you grow up and have your own Powie and when he grows up and has his own Powie and when he grows up and has his own Powie, it’ll still happen a long time after that.
Po: No, no, I’m very sad.
Daddy: By the time it happens we will move to another planet in another solar system so we’ll be saved.
Po: Ok.
