While Rather Morbid, Still Quite Cute

Will, earlier this month:

"I'm going to tell you a secret that only my school friends and my plain old friends and you can hear. Okay? [Whispers] I'm going to have a party with my school friends at school for all the people that died to make them not sad anymore. And we're going to have a big cake and a puppet show! It's not that hard to make a puppet! You just stick your hand in there like this [puts his hand behind his stuffed dalmatian] and then...like I'm doing with Dukey!"

Me: "Okay, so you're having this party for the people who KNOW someone who died...or for the people who actually died?"

"For the people who died, so they're not sad anymore. Like Uncle Bill."

*****

And later that day: 

"Mom, did you know that once a bee stings you, it dies?"

"The bee dies? Yeah, I did know that."

"Yeah. Sad."
