Death and the Maiden...

Polanski's movie is one of my all time favorites but I just used the subject line...

Tara is 4 and a half, she is just starting to understand about death and aging, etc. She asked me the other day:
-Mammy when I will be old and when I will die, will you and daddy hold my hand?
And I just said: - Yes honey, mummy and daddy will hold your hand, but that won't be a long time yet. You will first grow up, go to the yellow school, go to the brown school, go to college, get married have children and grandchildren...
I hope that was the right answer for the right level of maturity...
