Good Heavens

I tweeted this stuff already (@tfhofmann), mostly as notes to myself. And the 11-year-old follows me on Twitter, so I have to be judicious with respect to tweets. Anyway, the conversation after baseball practice, at which teammates annoyed son No. 2, went something like this:

8-year-old: If someone annoys you in Heaven, you can't hurt them, right?

Parent (thinking he means because you have to be nice in Heaven): Why?

8-year-old: Because it's just their soul, and you can't punch a soul. Where is your soul?

Parent: It's not something physical.

8-year-old: But where is it in your body?

Parent: I don't know.

8-year-old: From Heaven you could look down on school and laugh because you'd have tons of flat-screen TVs.
