A Postscript on Mortality

Tonight, RD Husband was getting the four year old ready for bed.

Four Year Old: “I love jet packs.”

RDH: “Me, too!  I’d love to have a jet pack.”

FYO: “When I grow up, I’m going to be a jet pack designer.  I’m going to make jet packs.”

RDH: “That is so cool.  Will you make one for me?”

The four year old considers.

FYO: “Well, you might be dead by then.”

Wah, wah, wah…

    Oh, small child, thou shouldst not burn thy patriarch thusly! (Though, to be fair, this sounds more like child-logic than an intentional slight).

    Side note: if he does become a jet pack designer, I’m putting my order in now!
