It's not at all unusual for seven-year olds to spend a lot of time talking about big questions to do with life and death or to aware of their own mortality. And, with his mum in hospital, it not surprising that Kai is having such thoughts.
Last night, at about 22.00, having read him bedtime stories and tried to settle him down, he suddenly wanted to know what happens when we die. I was totally exhausted and really not up to this discussion. I offered a few lame suggestions.
And then out of the blue, he said: Perhaps we come back as a new baby? Heaven knows where he's acquired ideas about reincarnation from, I was just grateful.
Having sorted that out, we then moved on to the far safer ground of whether Tiger Wave or Megatron was the more powerful Decepticon.
Seven-year olds also tend to have a wonderfully butterfly mind!
