Glimpses of Oliver

If Ethan ever mentions Oliver, I try to ask questions to catch small glimpses of Oliver. This morning I asked Ethan if Oliver ever visits him. He said yes. I asked Ethan what Oliver looks like. In a very childlike manner, Ethan paused and said, "Hmmm ... Oliver is like an airplane." I asked if he meant that Oliver is up in the sky and he said yes. I also asked what Oliver does, and Ethan said they play toys together.

That is so sweet! These little children know and are so close to the veil it is comforting to hear the little things they tell us. Thank you for sharing that sweet moment.

Oh I love it. Treasure those moments because they only last a short while. They tend to forget or not talk about it when they get older. That is precious.

Aren't kids amazing! I'm so glad you shared that - I think we all forget how close we are to angels.
