Adam
loved swimming with his
hippopotamus
the
water was always just right.

After
the terrible change
(
you know - after the 3rd chapter of Genesis )
the
water always seemed too cold
or
too
muddy
or
too
something.
It
was sad when all the animal friends began to
get
old.
When
the hippo died, Adam wondered if the
hippopotamus
and his other animal friends would be in
HEAVEN.
Adam
missed his talks with JESUS.
He
wanted to ask HIM so many questions.
Adam
imagined his hippo in HEAVEN
and
what he would look like.
