My husband and I had just finished tucking our four young ones into bed one evening when we heard sobbing coming from three-year-old Eric's room.
Rushing to his side, we found him crying hysterically. He had accidentally swallowed a penny and was sure he was going to die. No amount of talking could change his mind.

Eric was delighted.

- It was killed by a car. The kitten is dead.
- Where does a kitten go when it dies?
- God takes the kitten to heaven.
The little boy took another bite of cookie and then said:
- But, Grandma, what does God want with a dead kitten?
