Guess what I saw?

One day my family and I were at the church. Mom and Dad told me to go get something that was left in the car. I stayed in the car for a while, then when I was done I came out and went into the church. I started looking for my family and I went in to the Relief Society room and saw a dead woman in a box. Other people were in there and they said, "Hello". I said "Hello" back. The box was brown with a yellow stripe in the middle. I got up on my tippy toes and I peeked into the box. She had white skin and was very very very old. Older than Grandma Hicks. Her eyes were shut, but I didn't touch her. She had a pillow under her head so she was like this. I knew she was dead because she was closing her eyes. What would happen if I peeled up her eyes like this? Her hair was gray, and her skin was white and thin and wrinkly. You could even see through it. When I saw the dead woman I felt the Holy Ghost. I felt sad, too. Then I left and found my mom. I didn't tell anyone for about four weeks! When we die, our spirit comes out of our bodies and it goes up to Heavenly Father. Our bodies just lay on the ground. When people see that you're dead, they put you in a box and call everyone. They have a party, then they put you in a box, then in the ground. A headstone goes over the body. I'm not afraid to see dead people, are you? The end.
