Kids and Funerals

Listening to kids will always pay big benefits to adults!  Kids are very direct in asking questions and we as adults should be prepared to answer no matter how uncomfortable we may feel at the time.

My granddaughter just came back from attending a funeral of her father's uncle.  When she and I were alone she asked me "Grandma, when you die will you invite me to your funeral and can I sit on the front row?"

I said "of course, you are invited and you can sit on the front row.  Will you bring me some beautiful flowers?"  She said "yes I will."  She gave me a kiss on my cheek and walked off to play.

I smiled and thought quietly "Thank You God for our Kids."

So true. We should be prepared everytime specially when we are with the kids. One time, I remember a kid ask me and said, "why are you not happy? Do you want me to give you lollipop so you will smile?" I was shocked and stop for a while. It really makes me think of that kid's question to me. I realized that for them it is so simple to be happy. I then wish I was a kid then.
