We had a funny dinner conversation the other night talking about death and funerals. Our children have had to deal with the death of their grandfather and their aunt, so it's not a scary topic at our house. Sometimes it is serious, but this night it was funny.
They don't understand how people communicate about funerals, and are under the impression that they invite people to their funeral. So Krynne said she wants to make sure when people are invited to her funeral that they are told to wear their pajamas. She wants her funeral to be fun, not sad. And then knowing how much Krynne dislikes dressing up, I said I wanted them to dress up in formal dresses with heels for my funeral. They decided they will dress up in formal black dresses as spies, possibly shooting people with water guns. So beware at my funeral, you never know what might happen!
Krynne would like to be cremated. She would like her Uncle Tod to make a box, and realized she should ask sooner rather than later as he might die before she does. We are supposed to keep the box on a table in the house with a sign that says "Krynne Josephine Knopik - Rest in Pieces".
