Emily was concerned tonight after we read our scripture story ( the focus was on obedience, and returning to Heavenly Father) because she wanted to know what would happen to our house & all her stuff when we left it to "return to Heavenly Father".
Not wanting to dive into a lengthy explanation that would make her upset because we would end up talking about death, we veered off to another sticky topic, the fact that stuffed animals won't go to Heaven with her. But we fudged by saying that real tigers would not eat meat, and she could play with them. How do you explain "You can't take it with you to a 6 year old."

We had a similar conversation recently and Camille made a firm decision, "I'm not ever going to die." That would solve the problem, I guess!
I had not thought of that approach! I'll have to try it :)
