Teddy: “Who is dead?”
ALB: “well, my grandmother just died.”
Teddy: “who else? George Washington?”
ALB: “yes he is dead.”
Teddy: “why? Because he’s from a long time ago?”
ALB: “Yes. People from a long time ago are dead now because they became very old many years ago and when people become very old they die “
Teddy: “Then what?”
ALB:” Then they aren’t here anymore. And they won’t come back. Their bones get buried in the ground and their hearts and minds go to the sky to be with God [I think].”
Teddy:” Why them not coming back?”
ALB: “Because when someone dies they don’t come back so you can miss them.”
