I picked Jordan and Maddi up from spending time at Grandma’s house today. The first thing my son asked me as I buckled him in his car seat was “How do people get up to heaven?” Was this a trick question? I want to have good answers for him. I want to have an answer for him. Above all I don’t want to just make things up. I want him to trust me.
“Jesus is our way to heaven, Jordan.” I replied. “He will bring us to heaven by knowing him.”
“No, Mom,” my three and a half year old informed me, “They float. People float to heaven.”
Maybe we both have a piece of the truth.
