Planning ahead

Getting Ellie to bed:

Ellie: Mommy, stay with me!
Me: No, honey, you need to get yourself to bed.
Ellie: (grabbing my rings) Can I hold these so I'll remember you?
Me: No, those are my rings, I'm going to keep them.
Ellie: When you die, I want you to give me your rings and I'll put them in a special box so I will remember you forever.
Me: Of course you can have my rings when I die, but hopefully I won't die for a long time, until you are all grown up.
Ellie: You have to eat healthy food and exercise and don't smoke.
Me: That's right.
