Did You See The Moon?

Sara and I woke twice last night to sneak peeks at the lunar eclipse. We watched the very beginning of the process and then woke up almost 2 hours later to see it nearing it's conclusion - we'd overslept the alarm to see the eclipse at its totality. It was the first time in nearly 4 centuries that a lunar eclipse coincides with the Winter Solstice. I woke up this morning thinking about all of the cool, little things that happen everyday that we might miss if we're not paying attention. Sometimes we need to just slow down and take a look around us. Thank you, Sara, for suggesting we moongaze last night.
