Heaven

So, my daughter is playing "Heaven" right now. She's going to see God (in our sun room) with her little toy puppy dog (who she calls "Blue"). I was washing dishes when she started the game. She came up to me and said, "Momma, I'm going to go to heaven now. I'm going to see God. I'm taking Blue. I'll miss you when I'm gone." OK, now normally I don't cry at such things, but I just lost it. The way she said it and those eyes looking up at me.......
It was a short meltdown though, because she returned and said "I'm back from Heaven now mom and God had pink eyes!".

I would have lost it to. The things our little kiddies say.

Precious and probably stopped your heart for a second. I think your Emily is so smart and you are evidently doing a great job teaching her about God and heaven. CLaire often talks to Jesus in every day conversation and I think it is so precios, I hope she never stops doing that. :o)

Well, it's late and I am not making much sense! Hope ya'll have a great weekend!

Blessings,
