Kids turn around and stare. I feel other mom volunteer looking at me and I am thinking I swear do not encourage these morbid thoughts!

I had to laugh when I read this... because this sounds so like DS.

DS was asking DH what happens if both engines of a twin-engine jet fails after watching the documentary on the Boeing 777... and while we were flying on a clear, sunny day, he suddenly asked DH "What if lightning strikes the plane?"
