Conversations with 4 1/2 year olds

Yesterday we were laying on the trampoline looking for pictures in the clouds and the following took place:

Blake: That one looks like a footprint!
Me: Maybe its God's footprint! Maybe he was walking through the clouds today.
Maddy: But how did he get up there?
Me: He's already up there...in heaven.
Maddy: Oh. That's where my goldfish went when we flushed them down the toilet.
Me: ....um....yeah...Heaven's a special place where you go when you die
Maddy: My goldfish DIED?!
Me: .......
Blake: But why was he walking in the clouds?
Me: I don't know--maybe he just likes to, so he can check up on all of us.
Maddy: ......He's funny.

Indeed, He is :)
