Out of the Mouth of Babes

Sometimes I wonder, and worry a tad, at what my children come up with. On our drive to school, Mackenzie raised her voice and asked, "Mommy, can I have our house when you and Daddy are dead?" I had to ask why. "I don't know. I like it." But what about your other sisters? Maybe you can by their part of the house from them. But sure, you can have the house, if you still want it. I suppose having a consistant home helps one to feel grounded. Yet the girls have weigh the advantages from time to time of living closer to their school and friends. Hey, why was she more concerned with getting the house than our dying? Maybe having our cat and several fish die has made it understood to her that death is unavoidable. Perhaps death isn't real to her yet. Where do these questions come from, eh? :)
