timmy saw a dead animal it was already stiff on its back, legs sticking straight up. he asked his father why it was positioned like that. his father said that is so God can pick it up and carry it off to heaven. the next day when timmys father came home from work, timmy told him we almost lost mom today. his father said what do you mean? timmy said I saw mom laying flat in her back, her legs stuck in the air like that animal, but fortunately uncle heney was there holding her down.
