Children's View of Angels

These are some children's thoughts on angels.

ANGELS

There are only two I know the names of - Hark and Harold.

Angels don't wear halos anymore. I forget why, but scientists are working on it.

It's not easy to become an angel. First you have to die. Then you go to heaven. Then you still have to go through the flight training. And after that, you have to agree to wear angel clothes.

Angels don't eat anything, but they do drink milk from holy cows.

Angels talk all the way while they're flying you up to heaven. They mostly talk about what you did wrong before you got dead.

If an angel gets mad, he takes a deep breath and counts to ten. Then when he lets out his breath, there's a tornado somewhere.

Angels have a lot to do and they're really busy. If you lose a tooth, one comes through your window and leaves money under your pillow. When it gets cold outside, they fly south for the winter.

Angels live in cloud houses. They're made by God and His Son, who is a really good carpenter.

All angels are girl because they gotta wear dresses and boys didn’t' go for it.

Some angels are in charge of helping sick pets. If they don't make the pet get better, they help the child get over it.

This is what I don't get about angels. When someone is in love, they shoot arrows at them.

GUARDIAN ANGELS

Angels work for God. They're there to watch over kids when God is busy doing something else.

My guardian angel helps me with my math, but he's not much good for science.

My guardian angel is my Nana. She's up in heaven. She got a head start in helping me while she was still down here on earth.
