Perspective from a 6-year-old.

Tonight Braxton and I read scriptures before he went to bed. It was great to read and help him to understand them. As we discussed the resurrection and what that means I explained how one day Kent and I will die, but because of Christ's resurrection we will live again. Braxton then asked me what day we would die. I told him I didn't know, but I hoped it wouldn't be for a really long time. Earlier in the conversation I drew stick figures on a pedigree chart to visually explain how Jesus Christ is our brother not our Father and he told me that Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father needed beards on their stick figures. After I told him we wouldn't die for a long time he indicated that Kent was not too far away from dying. He went on to share that when he had stuff (hair) under his nose (mustache) and not just his chin (goatie) he would die. So those of you with full beards watch out...you don't have much longer to live! :)

188 lToo funny! This reminds me of our conversation today. Don't take him to see the show FrankenWeenie. It is quite disturbing. Cayson and I left half way through it he was so scared and it gives a really messed up view of death which I don't know if Cayson will ever recover from it. So glad he didn't see the whole thing. Wish I knew more about it before going. :(
