I love my moments and talks with my children.  They usually have some very entertaining things to say.  However, there are certain things children should not have to worry about...death, being one of them.  My sweet little Kya has developed a fear of death.  Randomly, she will come up to me in tears and say that she cannot stop thinking about death.  Breaks my heart, not sure what to do for her, but here are some of her questions and our converstations...for journaling purposes.

Kya: "I don't want to die before you mom, I don't want you and dad to die before me.  Who is going to take care of me when you die?  Is there an animal heaven?  What if we die before Diesel and Ozzy?  Who is going to feed them?  What if I am not a good girl, I won't get to live with Heavenly Father and Jesus?"

Mom: "Well, honey, you don't need to worry about anything right now but being a darling almost 6 year old and what you want to do for your birthday this week, and make sure to choose the right and always be good so you will be in heaven with Jesus."

WOW!  Some real fears in that girl....and I hope she will always come to me or Carl to talk.  I love our tender moments.  And I love that little girl.
