Prayers of a 5yr old....

Last night before bed, I called the kids to my room so we could pray together before bed. I don't make them do this every night cause I remember hating it when I was Cayden and Tre` age, but there are some prayers that need to be prayed as the Bible says in the midst of two or three....so I said a prayer and said Amen, and Ethan eye's still closed, head in hands, says as only a 5yr old little boy can, "And help don't make Papaw die."  Sometimes, there just aren't words..... ;)
This must have gotten him to thinking cause he woke me up later by getting in my bed and asking about those that have already gone to Heaven and how they got there....like I said, sometime there just aren't words, at least not good enough to explain to a 5 yr old little boy whose nickname is "Dennis" (the Menace) 
A song has been going over and over in my mind since Sis Debbie Roberts died, she was such a Proverbs 31 lady, a Virtuous Woman.

"How Beautiful Heaven must be, Sweet Home of the Happy and Free
 Fair Haven of Rest for the weary, How beautiful Heaven must be."
