Dinner with Uncle Sandy part 2


2) Story of B.I.

When my uncle was very little, they had a dog that he loved very much.  His name was B.I. but he never knew what that stood for.  When Uncle Sandy was four years old, B.I. passed away.  He went up very bravely (wiping away a tear) to his mother, who was cooking in the kitchen.  He said, "Mummy, when I die (having a proper understanding of life) and if I go to heaven (having a proper expectation of life) will B.I. be there?"  His mummy, my Mamoo, stopped what she was doing and turned to him.  She said to him, "in heaven, you are perfectly happy.  So if it would make you happier to have him there, then he will be there."  And Uncle Sandy is still looking forward to seeing his puppy when he gets to heaven - among other things of course.
