Hobson's Choice

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Moments

The Moment When You Think That Perhaps You've Taken the Concept of "Fire Safety in a Home with Young Child Too Far:" when your child sees a candle (a Yankee Candle) in someone else's house, she asks, "Does that family celebrate Chanukah?"

The Moment When You Fear That You're Raising a Sociopath: when your child says, "That was a good funeral. When we gonna have another funeral again?"

Which transforms into Moment of Guilt About Not Raising Child In A Simpler Era of Less Mobility, because you realize that it's not death that's got your kid all into funerals, but the fact that she gets to see uncles and great-aunts and all her extended family.
