Our 5 year old, Kyle, often comes up with some far-out questions and comments. Here is his latest…

Kyle: “Mom, what do you think heaven smells like?”

Mom: (after slight pause): “I don’t know…maybe like flowers?”

Kyle: “Hmmm…you never know”

At first this just seemed like a silly question, but it got me thinking too. What doesheaven smell like? And why does it take a 5 year old to ask the question in the first place? I can see God smiling now at the innocence and wonder of a child curious to know such a thing.
