Milly and I were sitting at the dinner table and she starts up some post-meal conversation.
Milly: Mumma, what happens if the phone rings right now?
Me: Well, someone will answer it.
Milly: No you can't because you'll be dead.
Me: Oh. Why will I be dead?
She laughs and changes the subject.
Milly: Mumma, can people live up to 100?
Me: Yes.
Milly: I don't think you will. Can people live past 100?
Me: Yes
I'm not sure if she wants me dead or she is subconsciously worried about me dying. However, five minutes before all this she did ask me if I could "stay with her forever".
