We have a beautiful painting hanging in our hallway of the prophet Elijah riding up to Heaven in his fiery chariot. It was a school project painted by a sweet 9 yr. old little girl in memory of our son Elijah. She blessed us with the painting and it has held a place of honor in our home ever since. I had this conversation with Little Miss Sassyfrass tonight.
Sassyfrass: “Look at Jesus riding his horse.”
Me: “That’s not Jesus, that’s Elijah from the Bible. You have a brother named Elijah. He is in Heaven and you will get to meet him there someday.”
Sassyfrass: eyes wide, grinning from ear to ear “We are going to dance, put on makeup and go swimming!”
So there you have it folks! No more wondering what we will do in Heaven.

Bummer! Does that mean I have to put on make-up and wear a bathing suit everyday? I hope they have Mary Kay up there so my face doesn’t break out. LOL!
