For Cellpic Sunday.

Back in 2021, I took my son and granddaughter on her first Cemetery exploration field trip.

She asked about monsters and then she gathered up her courage ( and her Dad ) and went up to the biggest monument in the cemetery and she reached out and touched it’s hand. She kept her eyes on it’s face and asked why it was sleeping and all I could think to say is that it was naptime.  Then she asked if all of the monsters in their graves were taking a nap and I said, ‘ yes ‘.

She seemed relieved to hear that.

A couple of days later we walked across the street to a church so that Jemma could take one of her electric cars out for a spin in the lot and she trotted up to these statues to have a talk with them ( that’s what she told me ). She didn’t tell me what they talked about.

All I know is that she wanted to talk  with the tall ‘angel lady’ and kept a protective arm around the ‘little girl’ the entire time.

My granddaughter may have been a little scared of cemeteries and what sleeps in them back in 2021  but this was Jemma last Halloween. I think it’s safe to say she isn’t intimated by them now- would you?
