I used to believe that we could write letters to people who had died. My mother's mother passed away when I was 3, and I'd never met my father's mother. My mother's stepmother sent me clothes for every holiday, and she had me write thank you notes to grandma. Well, I thought that the clothes had been sent from heaven, and the notes were going to one of the grandmas there. I didn't know for the longest time that it was all from the "grandma" who was alive in NYC. It made me really believe in the mail system! and that there must be some sort of transportation back and forth...
