Thank you, my Robert. That was lovely and it helped me.
One of the things you have to have ready when you have kids is what I call "the death talk." The very first time my two little bits fell in love with mice at the pet store my first thought was "oh, shit, I have to get the death talk ready." (Mice only hang around for a couple of years.) Well, dead pets, like balloons that slip away, all go up to this beautiful place that I described to them...and Grandma. If I was at all accurate in my description, my mother is sitting under a tree full of balloons (she despises balloons) surround by cats, dogs, mice, rats, chickens and a hermit crab.
Boy, is my Mom pissed.
