Conversation with my daughter.
Apr. 21st, 2011 10:20 pmWhy you should exercise caution before reading your child a retelling of the Odyssey
:
Alex: Mom, what will happen if, one day, I'm one of the most famous women in the world?
Me: We'll be really, really proud of you.
Alex (dubiously): From the afterlife? Because most spirits don't remember anything about their former lives unless they drink animal blood.
I don't even. I hope she doesn't bring this out at RE, or someone's gonna call CPS on us.
