sometimes your kids break your heart more than you could ever imagine possible Laying in bed tonight Ella suddenly bursts into tears wrapping her small arms around my neck - squeezing so tight its actually kind of hard to breath. Through sobs she says: -I dont want to die and leave you me, a little shocked where this came from - that isnt going to happen until you are an old, old, old lady in a very, very long time so you dont have to worry Ella, still sobbing hard -but I just dont ever want to leave your side, ever! Mama! me, heart officially broken -Ill never leave you - because remember? its when your body gets too old, it dies. but your spirit, or your soul goes to heaven and well always be together there. Ella, actually crying harder than before -but what if we dont go to the SAME heaven? then I will miss you FOREVER! me, even MORE heart broken than before & even more amazed where she comes up with this stuff -we will. well all be there together, forever. So you wont ever have to miss anyone. we only miss someone for a little while when were left behind on earth, but then were together. ella, lets out a huge wail -but MAMA! you dont know ANYTHING about heaven and needer do i so how do you know that is the truth?! me, a little stunned & hoping my answer would suffice -i just KNOW it. when our bodies die that is NOT the end. we would all just be too sad if it was, so dont worry about that. Just like I know when youve been bad, or lied or didnt eat all your supper. I just KNOW! Ella, sniffing and calming down only slightly -ok ill try my b-b-b-est not to worry Mama, but what Im really worried about now is that Daddy said I cant have a kitty!!! - breaks into sobs again. how is a 4 year old heart so heavy? so worried?
