We saw "Smiley" in the sky

We took Caitlin to the doctor as she was having flu and she had them for the past one week. In fact, it was her second visit to her pediatrician. On our way back, hubby mentioned that the cresent-shaped moon together with 2 stars looked like a smiley. And indeed it did.

I thought nothing of it. When we reached home, hubby tried taking photos of it but it did not turn our well. The photo in this blog is from the internet. The next day, I was surprised to read it in the newspaper and that it was a stellar phenomenon caused by Venus, Jupiter and a three-day-old crescent moon. The biggest surprise is that it happened once every 5 years.


I wonder if I'm lucky enough to see it again.
