Joseph Smith said they would be, and that worthy mothers and fathers would be able to raise them to adulthood.

He also taught that they would remain children for all time and sit in the heavens in their child bodies reigning in celestial glory.

With the obscurity of what the actual truth is on the matter, I'm not sure that there is a "good enough for me" reality. It strikes me that we'll just have to wait and see.

I have much confusion as to this as well:

 

HX as to the topic: I have a daughter from a previous spouse (Not a member) who died when she was just a few months old. Her mother, a non-member, I had approached and asked if she would mind our daughter being sealed to my celestial wife and I. She voiced much objection, and I have refrained from sealing her to my wife and I. We also have two grown sons, that are LDS, who have voiced refusal to seal unless it was to their mother (again, she is not a member) and I. I have let the subject drop, with sadness, yet also out of a abundance of respect for them. I also have my mother, who is also LDS, yet has had no interest in going to the temple and is unendowed, and therefore, not sealed to me, yet have done the ordinances for my grandparents. Needless to say, I consider these things often with respect to the first resurrection. I just have to trust to heavenly father than it will all work out somehow. That's the best I've got concerning the subject, yet it weighs heavily on my mind.
