When I was a kid my mother told me that every time you heard thunder it was the angels bowling in heaven. Also, when it rained it was an angel crying. When a bell rings it is an angel getting their wings. If you find a penny lying on the ground it is because an angel tossed it your way to say hello.
What did you think about angels when you were a kid? What do you children think? Ever ask them?
