Black spec passing in front of the moon several times.

I was looking through my telescope that my mother gave me tonight ( i dont know anything about telescopes) and while i was fascinated by the lunar surface i saw a tiny black spec zoom across the surface of the moon, it only lasted about 2 seconds and then it was gone, the moon was more than three quarters full. i watched and waited for about 7 mins and i saw it again. (now i cant be sure but i think it changed direction while passing between my telescope and the moons surface.) i watched for this again and saw it three more times. i then went into the house and told my wife what i had seen. "oh my god, your an idiot" she said.

i talked her into watching for the same thing. 5 mins i told her. just 5 mins.

she agreed and actually saw it after about 5 mins of moon gazing. she thinks it was a bug crossing the glass of the telescope, so i waved my finger in front of it while she looked through and could not see my finger. so i asked her how could she see a bug? she thinks im crazy but i think this is a craft of somekind and that it had to be extremely large to see from my puny telescope. anyone one else see this?
