Little Kids, Big Subjects

Mia's friends, Ella and Diva are going through a difficult time because their parents are splitting up -and not being very friendly to each other either. It has caused her to think about matters that I wish she hadn't had to think about yet. Today she was asking me some questions.

Mia: What did it feel like when your parents divorced?

Me: Sad.

Mia: When did it happen? Were you sleeping when it happened?

Me: Well, it doesn't really happen like that. It's not that fast.

Mia: Who did you live with? With your mom mostly or with your dad?

Me: First, I lived with my dad mostly and then later I lived with my mom mostly.

Mia: What did it feel like when you had to leave your dad?

Me: Sad. Okay, how about a chocolate dipped banana?

Mia: Yea!
