Special Delivery to Heaven

This yr to celebrate dads/papas birthday, I had the kids make special letters to him and then we went to Krogers and bought some balloons so we can send the messages to heaven. Boy did that start a lot of questions.. like will he get them, is there a roof in heaven, where does he sleep, where does he go bowling, is he happy, does he have fun, how did he get there etc....

It was nice to be able to discuss heaven with them. I never had anyone close to me die until I was older so I never really had a concept of where we go when we die.. I mean I knew heaven but until you know someone that has taken that trip, it's hard to grasp. So I'm glad to be able to share with my kids what I know about eternity.
