As we were driving home the other day, Corwin suddenly pipes up and asks Mom and I if we have wills. Something of an odd question, we thought. We explained that yes, we did have wills, why do you ask? Corwin was evasive as to his reasons.
Dad: So, does this mean that you’re planning to kill us for the insurance money?
Corwin: No! I don’t know how much that is!
Ah, now that’s re-assuring.
Uh, I think he wanted to know where he would go if something happened to you. It is a phobia shared by many children.
But that’s not what he asked about. Mom thinks he it’s because he was reading A Series of Unfortunate Events in which a will figures prominently.
