Putting Kya to bed tonight...this is our conversation. I was reading to her...we are almost done reading "Charlotte's Web". We read the part where Charlotte dies.
Kya: "Why did Charlotte die?"
Me: "Cuz she was old and she worked very hard...it was her time to go"
Kya: "I don't want to die ever"
Me: "Why? I don't want you to die either, but when its time, we all die sometime. Then we go to Heaven and live with our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. Don't you want to be in heaven?"
Kya: "How many sleeps will I be in heaven?"
Me: "For forever"
Kya: "I don't want to be in heaven for forever"
Me: "why not"
Kya: "I want to stay here for forever, I want to be with Mommy, Daddy, and Zander for forever"
Me: "Well, guess what, we will be together for forever because we went to the temple as a family"
She wipes her eyes and rolled over to go to sleep. Said she wasn't crying, but I could see the joy in her eyes. I love that girl. I am so grateful that Carl and I have Kya and Zander in our family forever.
