Flames

The flames were really high from this flare stack nearby. 

I was reading a space book for Sh tonight and our conversations goes like this: 
Sh: How far is the space ?
Me: Very far
Sh :  Tell me the number
Me: How do I tell you (thinking out loud)?
Sh:  Why can't you tell me?
Me: Miilions of kms away.
Sh : Its quite far, mumma.

He always needs figures even for how much I love him :-)
