Not trying to go on a self pity one here but I've just lost my Mum (yesterday) after a long history of cancer.

I have no clue how to tell DD (3 next week). She LOVES her Nan and it was OK when I was able to tell her she was very poorly and staying in a special hospital (I did take her to visit) but now I just don't know what to say. The whole "she's gone to live in heaven" explanation is so easy....but I'm totally atheist so I'd feel like I was lying.

Can anyone help me come up with something to say? This is in no way disrespectful to those who hold religious beliefs, I just don't myself, but I am starting to see how they can be quite comforting in times like this.
