I Can Only Imagine

My two oldest kids (ages 3 and 5) have been asking a lot about death and Heaven lately. Sometimes they're just matter-of-fact and other times they're filled with anxiety. I remember experiencing the same thing, even at an older age, so I'm not at all surprised by this. Still, it doesn't make it easy. A few nights ago Ryan and I were each holding a sobbing child and looking at each other over their heads like, "Nobody warned us about this part!"

When I saw I Can Only Imagine available for me to review I cheered internally. I am a big fan of the song and have been dying to read the new adult version of the book so I was thrilled to see that there was a children's version perfect for my own little ones.

It proved to be perfect for their age-range and it inspired a lot of really great conversation. A says he hopes to read books with Jesus when he gets to Heaven and B says she hopes she gets to hold Baby Jesus. <3
