jacksons thoughts on bodies

things jackson said recently.

my grand-daddy passed away and we were talking about going down to the funeral. he asked about grand-daddy's bones.

jackson: where are they?

mom: his body is on earth and his spirit is in heaven.

j: can i touch his bones?

m: ...[hesitantly]... sure. you can hold his hand if you want to.

j: [thoughtfully] ok. if you're looking for me i'll be in the dirt.

m: huh?

j: you know, digging up his bones.

another day i was getting jackson dressed and i must have touched his hands on accident or something because he responded with.

j: mom! don't hurt my hands. [and then he held them close to his chest like he was protecting them] they're very special to me. God made them.
