Dang language barrier!
Sometimes I forget just how confusing it must be to be little.Exact conversation from a car ride last week.
Calvin: Mom, when are we going to die?
Me: long discussion about how no one knows exactly, but Heavenly Father is aware of us and Mommy and Daddy will keep you safe and blah blah blah.
Calvin: But what is it to die?
Me: long discussion of spirit leaving body, heaven, blah blah.
Calvin, later: Mommy, I really want you to die.
Me, slightly shocked: stay here on earth, be your mommy, love you, blah blah.
Calvin, frustrated: But then I WANT TO DIE!
Me: Why??? Life is so wonderful, it's a gift, wonderful family, mission to fulfill, blah blah.
Calvin: Because you SAID we got to dye with the kool-aid and scarves.
Oh. DYE. Gotcha. Yeah, we'll get right on that one, Calvin.
