My February blog stated that my brother accidentally hit his dog Sammy, and sadly Sammy died. Last week, my brother got a new puppy. Here is the conversation Mateo and I had on the way to grandma and grandpa's yesterday:
Me: Mateo, you are going to get to see Isak's new puppy!
Mateo: Why did Isak drive over Sammy?
Me: It was an accident.
Mateo: Did Sammy get flat?
Me: Yes, I think so.
Mateo: Did they put Sammy in the garbage?
Me, after some thought: No, they buried him in the ground.
I'm not sure what is more disturbing--an adult picturing a dead dog in the garbage or a toddler picturing a dead dog buried in the ground somewhere.
