i think i might tell her that the doctor couldnt fix him and he died and went to a special place where his nose is better and he can run around and play....but i know she will ask if we can play with it and will we see it in the garden as she asked that before, so il have to think about how to answer that one. maybe that the special place is far away or something.....not really sure about saying its in the sky. im sure she will tell me im silly and that echidnas cant fly....or somrthing

DH wants to tell her that it got better and we let it go, but i dont see the point in that. FILs dog died a few weeks ago and she loved that dog, so i agreed with DH and we told her that the dog had gone to FIL friends farm so it could run about more. I kind of agreed that it would be to upsetting for her, but i think thins gives me a perfect chance to explain it a bit.

She is a smart little cookie and dwells on stuff and i know that what ever i tell her she will ask about over and over, im not sure how to deal with DH telling me i should have just brushed it off.
