What is wrong with my "if" statement here?

I can't figure out what's wrong with the code.

Please help :-)

branching.py 
favorite_color = input("What is your favorite color?  ")
    if favorite_color == "blue":
        print("You must love the sky!")

If you check the preview you'll see IndentationError: unexpected indent. The if statement shouldn't be indented and should line up with the favorite_color variable above.
