A Snippet of Last Night’s Conversation...

...between me and my four-year-old daughter.

“Today is Dr. Seuss’s 100th birthday.”

“Dr. Seuss?”

“That’s right. So we’re going to read some Dr. Seuss books at bedtime tonight.”

“But... isn’t he dead, Daddy?”

“Um... yes, he is dead.”

“How come it’s his birthday if he’s dead?”

“...”

“Daddy?”

“Uh... yeah, I guess that is a little hard to explain. Well... hm... Finish your dinner.”

“Okay, Daddy.”
