Funny trip story

We wanted to help Owen understand as much as possible about the funeral. Sort of a "test drive," so that he's prepared when someone close to him dies.
After the funeral we were driving to the cemetery. I turned to Owen and asked if he knew why "the lady was in the box" (as he put it).
"Yes," he said. "She died."
"That's right," I said.
"Yep, someone shot her in the head, and then she died," Owen continued.
Um, no. No more TV for you.
(For those that are worried--after we contained our laughter, we did explain in more detail who was "in the box" and why...and how.)
