My Daughter's Faith

Eliana asked me a few days ago why we can't see Heavenly Father. So I tried to make it simple and said we lived with Heavenly Father before and we'll live with Him again but when we're here on earth we need to show Him we can behave even without seeing Him. So then she said something like "but how can I see Him now?" and I told her we don't see Him but He sees us and we can talk to Him by praying and He gives us scriptures as His way of talking to us. I was feeling pretty proud of myself thinking I had explained it pretty well. That night when she said her prayer she said something like "Heavenly Father I miss you and I want you to come visit me. I'll save a spot by me on the couch and you can sit and watch me play my VSmile." Out of the mouths of babes!
