I don't mean to be a blog hog, but here's another post:
We were in the middle of reading Alma 40 tonight when Leah asked, "What's going on?"
I answered, "After you die, you'll be resurrected."
"What means resurrected?" asked Leah (yes, she starts her questions with 'What means').
"Well, you are a spirit. When you're born, you get the body you have now. One day, you're going to die and they're going to put you in a coffin and bury you."
"What's a coffin?" Leah asked.
"You know when we go to the cemetery for a funeral? They put the dead bodies in a coffin and then put them in the ground," Jen said.
I continued, "One day, when you get resurrected, you'll get your body back. It'll come out of the coffin and you'll get it again, but it'll be a perfect body."
Leah, a little perplexed, said, "How does Jesus know which body goes to which person?" She thought for a second and then said, "Oh yeah, they put names on the graves at the cemetery!"

That's a great answer! I wonder how they put the same body back together again if they get cremated. And Jim worries about how we'll find each other after we're resurrected since he wants to be buried in Benjamin and I will be buried in Spanish Fork. Hmmm....the deep mysteries of life.
Good answer, Leah!
Classic reponse. What a smartie pants!
Smart girl. Will always says that when we are resurrected that Diamond will be resurrected too.
Adrianne, well, yeah, didn't Disney or someone teach us that "All Dogs Go To Heaven"???
