Oh, I just want to hug LatteGirl – funny how we try to teach our kids and in turn, can still learn so much from them!

That’s much better than my best friend’s daughter, who is on a morbid streak. She’s 5 1/2. And when her Nana died (a week ago), we went to the funeral. She says to me, “Nana died. Did you feel her? She still feels fresh.” (Ok, I couldn’t help but snicker under my breath. Kids are weird.)

Then you get the questions about what the bodies look like after 50 years, etc. We have yet to deal with that one. (Avoidance worked for her mother so far. My kids are a little more medical and persistent.)

Kids never fail to throw you for a loop, they also never fail to ask the tough questions. I think you (and she) handled it very well.
