Death

Tonight I explained to Gillian why people die, their bodies are too sick/hurt to continue and she immediately said then they get a gravestone and I said yes. We discussed that everyone has a spirit that either goes to heaven (good people) or hell (bad people) and that your spirit is similar to a ghost but not scary. Spirits that go to heaven are angels; they get there with their wings. All dogs go to heaven (we discussed Peanut). Your spirit is the memories that your loved ones keep of you when you are no longer here that makes your spirit live on. We discussed Emma Grace’s Daddy and when I see Emma Grace she reminds me of her Daddy that brings memories which keeps his spirit alive. Then we needed to discuss that Gillian has Daddy’s eyes and Mommy’s nose and lips and they remind others of us through her (she was very intrigued on what she gets from where). We also discussed how we have Gabriel watching over us because he is an angel. We aren’t sure where the question came from; Gillian brought it up and was curious. I didn’t want to scare her or have her worry about people around us dying but I also wanted to be as truthful as possible.
