Children

Crystal is 3 1/2. During our scriptures discussion this morning:

Jesus got resurrected and is alive again.
Crystal: Why?
So that we can be resurrected too and be alive again a while after we die.
Crystal (starts whining): But I don't want to die ...
Don't worry, it's going to be a long long time before you die when you're a great-grandma and your body hurts and then you will think that it's okay to die.
Crystal (still whining): I don't want to die.
Well, maybe you won't die if Jesus returns when you're still alive and your body will automatically become perfect.
Crystal (whines some more): I want Jesus to come back now! waaah
I think that some people still have things to get done first like learn about Jesus and repent of their sins and get baptized and there are some spirits that still need to be born into bodies.
Crystal: I want to walk on the water.
