Dead Mom, the Sequel



If you haven't read my post, Dead Mom, two posts ago, this is the sequel--you might want to read that first.






Today I was driving home from Costco, and I again passed the Hatter Exchange.

"Henry, there's the dead mom," I said, sure that I hadn't won the discussion about the mannequin in front of this consignment store.

"Mom," he said confidently, "That's not a dead mom. That's a piece of plastic."

"Who taught you that?" I asked, incredulous that he really had processed what I told him. I don't even remember using the word plastic.

"Oh, I don't know" was his nonchalant answer.

Go figure.
