Existential Angst at Bedtime

Last night Maggie learned that she was going to die some day. and me, too. she was very sad. I was very sleepy and so had been sort of dismissive - something along the lines of, 'look at my mom! how old she is! we'll have at least that long...zzzzzz...'. and then this morning, very weepy and clingy. I can't figure out if she's not feeling well or just having an existential crisis. :-)

Also, yesterday she told me about how much she loves her best friend Riley at school. "Riley makes me feel like I'm at home!" she said. Wouldn't that be nice to hear about yourself?

Anyway. I've arranged to leave work early today for a few hours of just me and her. Fun!
