I forget why, but scientists are working on it.<br \/>\n    ~Olive, 9<\/p>\n<p>    It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not easy to become an angel! First, you die. Then you go to heaven, and then there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still the flight training to go through. And then you got to agree to wear those angel clothes.<br \/>\n    ~Matthew, 9<\/p>\n<p>    Angels work for God and watch over kids when God has to go do something else.<br \/>\n    ~Mitchell, 7<\/p>\n<p>    My guardian angel helps me with math, but he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not much good for science.<br \/>\n    ~Henry, 8<\/p>\n<p>    Angels don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t eat, but they drink milk from Holy Cows!<br \/>\n    ~Jack, 6<\/p>\n<p>    Angels talk all the way while they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re flying you up to heaven. The main subject is where you went wrong before you got dead.<br \/>\n    ~Daniel, 9<\/p>\n<p>    When an angel gets mad, he takes a deep breath and counts to ten. And when he lets out his breath, somewhere there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a tornado.<br \/>\n    ~Reagan, 10<\/p>\n<p>    Angels have a lot to do and they keep very busy. If you lose a tooth, an angel comes in through your window and leaves money under your pillow. Then when it gets cold, angels go north for the winter.<br \/>\n    ~Sara, 6<\/p>\n<p>    Angels live in cloud houses made by God and his son, who\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a very good carpenter.<br \/>\n    ~Jared, 8<\/p>\n<p>    All angels are girls because they gotta wear dresses and boys didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t go for it.<br \/>\n    ~Antonio, 9<\/p>\n<p>    My angel is my grandma who died last year. She got a big head start on helping me while she was still down here on earth.<br \/>\n    ~Katelynn, 9<\/p>\n<p>    Some of the angels are in charge of helping heal sick animals and pets. And if they don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t make the animals get better, they help the child get over it.<br \/>\n    ~Vicki, 8<\/p>\n<p>    What I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t get about angels is why, when someone is in love, they shoot arrows at them.<br \/>\n    ~Sarah, 7<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This email meme was sent by Jacque (thank you!).
