Angel Talk

Sofia likes to draw and tell stories. Alessandra likes to be told stories and loves to ask questions. Right before bed we say the goodnight prayer, which says: "... may angels guide me through the night...". One day Alessandra calls me back in her bedroom and in the dark she asked me: "Mama, where are the angels?"
I didn't want scare her or give her a complicated answer: "They are outside protecting our home"
She pays attention to every word I say and replies: "ahhhhh, I know! They are protecting our house so we don't lose power!" She is referring to the time around Christmas when we lost power for days.
In a different occasion she asked me: "Mama, how come I don't see the angels?"
I told her they were in her thoughts and in her heart.
She replies: "Mama, what is a thought?... Mama, what is in your thought and in your heart?"
