Though my son and I had been looking forward to the solar eclipse, thick clouds prevented us from seeing. If it had cleared up ten minutes earlier, we could have seen it. My son got disappinted and went back to bed to have some more sleep before going to school. I watched the eclipse on TV. It was beautiful and marvelous! I couldn't help being moved by the wonder of nature.
