Button (my 6 year old) and I have interesting conversations from time to time. Therefore, every once in awhile I will share one of them. This was yesterdays REAL LIFE conversation:
Button has a lot of questions about death and what happens after we die. Like all kids (and a lot of adults), she is a little afraid of it. I have talked to her and keep repeating the same thing when she asks that Heaven is going to perfect, and whatever makes her happy will be better.
Button: Mommy, in Heaven will there be waterslides
Me: bigger and better than you can ever imagine
Button: Mommy, in Heaven will there be flowers?
Me: Would that make you happy?
Button: Yes!
Me: Then there will be more flowers that you could ever imagine, or ever smell!!
Button: Mommy, in heaven,will I be able to sit on clouds?
Me: Would that make you happy?
Button: Yes!!
Me: Then you will have so many clouds that you will never run out of new clouds to sit and jump and play on!!
Button: Mommy, in heaven will there be cancer?
Me: No baby, no sickness, no sadness, no reason to cry, no one will ever be hungry.
Button: SO YOU MEAN HEAVEN SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE!!!
Me: Absolutely!!
