Preparing for the Future

Last night, while brushing Alex's teeth, she asked if she could do it all by herself. Her reasoning was so that, and I quote "I can know how to do it all by myself when you die." It's nice to know that once I am no longer on this earth, my child will carry on with all that I have taught her. However, I'm not too thrilled with the fact that she is already preparing for my departure. I have so much to teacher her in (according to her) so little time. : )
