Informative, touching , funny , fairly short. Like this story:

One of my young sons friends called us on FaceTime. “I got some really bad news”, the friend said in a solemn tone. Concerned, I listened closely. My son asked, “what happened?” His friend said, “Jeff died.” My wife, also concerned, asked “who’s Jeff?” “ He’s my frog,” the friend replied.

He then said a sweet prayer about the frog, thankful for their time on earth together and the joy he brought to their lives. It was a pretty mature eulogy for a kid. He ended it with “amen.” Before I could raise my bowed head, the toilet flushed.
