Kids Play 13 - Heaven Knows

Zee (6 years old) asked her father what a funeral is, as they passed by one...
.
Zee: What is a funeral?
Daddy: It is a ceremony for someone when they die.
.
Zee: Where do people go when they die?
Daddy: They go to heaven.
.
Zee: So is grandpa in heaven?
Daddy: Yes.
.

Zee: Where is heaven?
Daddy: Oh... it's far away.
.
At this point, Chris, a friend of her dad was also with them. She wanted to say to Zee that heaven is in her, but thought she'll let it pass. Then to her surprise...
.
Zee: No, heaven is everywhere....
.
As Zee went up the bus, she touched the bus and said...
Zee: Heaven is here, (then she touched the seats) and here, and here... (as she touched everything around her).
.
Then, she started to say "hello" in the open.
When Chris asked her why she is saying "hello" to seemingly no one, ...
Zee: I am saying hello to grandpa. Grandpa is in heaven and heaven is everywhere. We cannot see grandpa, but he can see us.
