If your first thought is "Couldn't she get a babysitter?" consider this from my Mom.

Mom was fascinated by the early NASA space program. Mom told me I watched John Glenn's flight, sitting next to her with my sippy cup, my infant brother in her lap.

Years later I asked why she didn't just put us down for naps. It would have been easier.

The point, Mom said, was that she wanted us to be able to say we saw it, even if we didn't remember it.
