Sad Children

Our Golden Retriever is old, and has kidney disease, and the vet doesn't think he'll be around at the end of the year. The kids were in the room when she told me this. They handled themselves very well until we got into the car. We had the discussion about getting old and bodies breaking down and living life the best we can while we can.

And then my boy, through a faceful of tears, says, "Dad? Can you please believe in Heaven so we can see Dino again?"

I'll try, Ricky. I'll try.
