I know I alluded to the fact

about
The Twins
(who are not really twins
at all)..
but I want to write this
post while it is
fresh in my mind..
Nana!
What?
Youh know what isss sad?
No, what?
Youh arhe gonna die!
I am?
Yep!
Youh gotta die!
Well, when am I gonna die?
When youh get old.
I thought you said I WAS old!
Well, you iss only a littdle bitt old.
But..when youh gett reahlly old..
you iss gonna die..
Isn't that sad, Nana?Well, it sure is sad news to me,
SweetCheeks.
Yeah...thaht is kinda sad, Nana..
You know whut else?
I'm afraid to ask!
No..this is sumthin' good.
Okay..What is it?
You know when you die?
yeah..
Well...youh are gonna look
like this!
Great!
Can hardly wait for THAT
opportunity!
Whut opphoroonidy?
Dying...I can't wait to look just
like that SweetCheeks.
Well...youh won't loohk 'zackly like that!
I won't?
No! Cuzz I ahm jus' a kid showing youh
how youh arhe gonna look..
but YOUH will look
old...
and dead!
Thanks!
Youh're welcome!
Thank you Lord for giving me this
child to remind me of
how short life
really is!
It makes me want to live
every moment to its fullest
extent.
I was just thinking...
do you realize that someday
SweetCheeks
could have a grandchild
just like her?
I would pay to see
THAT show!

  4. Well, when you get really old and die, maybe God will give you front row tickets to see it. That is if you are really good and earn those wings...and it's sweet that she's going to be sad. It beats being happy to get all your stuff!
    I love this kid- Tete

    Kids think those deep thoughts sometimes. I remember well thinking that about my Gram, and my Mom. Jack from time to time will talk about it too...except he can't bare the thought so he just says you are only half way through your life Mom....gosh I can only hope so:)

  17. Ouch! Sometimes the truth hurts.

    But, hey. Maybe you won't really die. Maybe Jesus will come back and grab both you and Sweet Cheeks up in the rapture.

  18. I get to laugh every time I visit here...
    Always makes me wonder about Sweet Cheeks when she is older.. Will she write for Hollywood? Will she be a lawyer?? Will she have her own show on Broadway??
    She is a hoot!! You are one Blessed Nana!!!
    Thanks for stopping by earlier... & Yes, about 2/3 the way thru, I wanted to quit & I did actually until she called & asked me for them... otherwise they would still be sitting here, with me frustrated... : )
    Trusting you are having a good day!!!
