Today in the car our conversation went like this....
Owen - "Mom, have you ever run over a little kid?"
Mom - "Um, no. And that would be terrible if that happened. That would be so sad."
Owen - "Well, what if we were on the freeway and there was a little kid running on it and we were going too fast and couldn't slow down and we ran over him?"
Mom - "Well, kids don't run on the freeway but if that happened that would be so sad."
Owen - "Mom, actually, it wouldn't be sad, it would be great."
Mom- "What? Why would that be great?"
Owen - "Because mom, all kids would love to go to heaven."
Obviously he hasn't grasped the reality of something like this happening but his heart was so matter of fact and serious, focused on the getting to heaven part...
