Heaven

I was watching a movie the other day and Claire and Taylor came into the room at the very end, and what they saw was a funeral and then the movie showing the lady's face up in the clouds. Claire asked me what that meant and I explained to her that she was in Heaven now.

Claire: I cannot wait to go to Heaven! When do we get to go Mommy?

Me: Not until you're old and you die.

Claire: And then how long do we stay and then come back?

Me: No honey, that is not how it works. You go to Heaven and stay forever when you die.

Claire: How long is forever?

Taylor: Like 8 days, right Momma?

Gosh, I hope it's longer than 8 days! That's not enough time for me locate the restroom! I'm gonna need at least 12!

The concept of time is a hard one, huh?

Reminds me of when I was a kid.
My brother and I used to imagine what the world would be like in the year 2000.
But wait, we'd be so old, like ....
almost 40 or something ....
That'll take so long, we equated it to our idea of eternity in heaven.
Figured there was no reason to even dream about anyhting past 2000.
jeesh
yours are so sweet.
we were just dorks
