ANGELS — FROM A KID'S PERSPECTIVE

I
only know the names of two angels — "Hark" and "Harold".
Gregory, Age 5
All
angels are girls because they gotta wear dresses and boys didn't go for
it.
Antonia, Age 9
My
guardian angel helps me with math, but he's not much good for science.
Henry,
Age 8
What
I don't get about angels is why, when someone is in love, they shoot
arrows at
them.
Sarah, Age 7
Angels
don't eat but they drink milk from holy cows.
Jack, Age 6
Angels
work for God and watch over kids whenever He has to go do something
else.
Mitchell, Age 7
Angels
live in cloud houses made by God's son, who's a very good carpenter.
Jared,
Age 8
I
hear angels all the time in my dreams. And I'm sticking with that no
matter how
many people tell me I'm crazy.
Molly, Age 8
When
an angel gets mad, he takes a deep breath and counts to ten. And when he
lets
out his breath, somewhere there's a tornado.
Regan, Age 10
Angels
have a lot to do and they keep very busy. If you lose a tooth, an angel
comes
in through your window and leaves money under your pillow. Then when it
gets cold,
angels go north for the winter.
Sara, Age 6
It's
not easy to become an angel! First, you die. Then you go to heaven, then
there's
still the flight training to go through. And then you got to agree to
wear those
angel clothes.
Matthew, Age 9
My
angel is my grandma who died last year. She got a big head start on
helping me
while she was still down here on earth.
Katelyn, Age 9
Everybody's

got it all wrong. Angels don't wear halos anymore. I forget why but
scientists
are working on it.
Olive,
Age 9
Some
of the angels are in charge of helping heal sick animals and pets. And
if they
don't make the animals get better, they help the kid get over it.
Vicki, Age
8
Angels
talk all the way while they're flying you up to heaven. The basic
message is where
you went wrong before you got dead.
Daniel, Age 9
