Today, Princess got into a nasty argument with a daycare girl (who will be DCG4, as she's 4 years old). They were playing nicely together working on a floor puzzle (which should have been a tip-off that something big was about to go down). All of a sudden, they're arguing, because naturally, they're both right...according to them. I physically separate the girls, and ask them each what's up. The responses? WELL...
DCG4 knows that dogs go to Heaven when they die. Princess agrees on this point, because you know, Nana's dog died and went to Heaven. The difference in opinions that rocked the boat?
DCG4's mommy said that when her dog died, he went UP to live with Jesus in Heaven, UP in the clouds.
Princess says nope, that's not right. When her Nana's dog died, Nana and Poppy buried it in the ground behind their garage. SO, Nana's dog went DOWN into the ground to live with Jesus in Heaven. (By the way, she came up with this all on her own...I had totally forgotten about her Nana's dog's death, but apparently this "Heaven with Jesus in the Ground" thing has been on her mind, she's put some real thought into it! lol)
Solution: MORNING SNACK! All's great now, both girls have forgotten their disagreement, and they enjoyed crackers and milk for snack.
*Just for the fun of it, here's Princess and Sassy's dog, Sammy*
