How lucky

For example: This morning Walker (my five year old son) asks me if I had a pet when I was a kid.  “Yes,” I say, “I had a Siamese cat that I loved named Ding How, but he got run over by a car.”  Walker: “It’s lucky that it got killed by a car.”  Me: “Why?”  Walker: “Because then you could get a new cat that isn’t named Ding How.”
