Cemetery

Went to Northern Suburbs cemetery to visit the graves of Priscilla's deceased grandparents.

Abi was curious. Why are they here? Because they died. (She knows that dying means you go away and don't come back). Why did Por Por's mummy die? Because she was very sick and the doctors in the hospital couldn't make her better.

Abi became quiet and maybe a bit sad. She didn't want to not come back, or not to be able to have fun with everyone. She didn't want people to die.

Priscilla said that everyone dies, but not for a long time yet, and we can have fun together for a long time yet. After that we will all go to heaven and God will look after us, and we will see each other again in heaven. Hope that Abi doesn't mull too much and become sad over this topic. Por Por didn't want this topic to be broached but what can one do when visiting a cemetery with a small inquisitive child?
