We had worked a code out years before he died suddenly in his sleep of a heart attack..It was to happen on our anniversary which is also my birthday..We never told anyone about it..It came true in a big way..I've posted it here before..
I told him I wanted not only red but also yellow roses on our anniversary/birthday..Well I woke up that morning and said well sweetie this is your chance to prove there is an afterlife..never dreaming it would actually happen..I was down on my knees fixing a sprinkler head I had taken out with my lawnmower..When my daughter pulled in the driveway and got out with a dozen yellow a dozen red roses..I couldn't hardly get up, I started shaking and crying..My daughter said, gee Mom they're only roses, I said Oh no, honey they are much more than that, then I told her about the code and she started to cry..She said, she was in Costco's and when she saw them and thought to herself I should get those for Mom..But the kicker was she said she had a dozen red and dozen white in the basket and was standing in line to check out, when she said it felt like a hand on her shoulder and she turned to look and saw the yellow roses, and went back and got those, putting the white roses back..She was closet to my husband of our three daughters and the youngest..they always shared a special bond so it made sense he would come to her..She had a dream a few weeks later where he came to her with a guy he called Ray, she said do you know who it is Mom, I said I did it was a friend of Dennis's who had died of a heart attack when he was in his early 20's..long before she was ever born..She said do you have a picture of him, I said just in your Dad's yearbook..She came over and picked him out on her own...She said Dennis, looked younger and was happy and said tell Mom, I Love her..I've had others with white feathers appearing in strange places and butterflies..as have all three of our daughters..
I believe they are around us and come and comfort us when we most need it..Anne I believe was just doing that..Remember they can see us and are aware of whats going on in our lives..
Take care...Gail...
I've had other "signs" since then, but none so inexplicable as that.
