Beautiful post!<br /><br />I think I wrote to you about my little messages from my Dad, before. But I will post again for others to read.<br /><br />My dad died about 12 years ago from cancer at the age of 52, boy, do I miss him with all my heart! I asked him to give me a sign that he was OK, it wasn't long after that, that I found my first message from him, in the form of a dime. (He was a coin collector) Now, I would find these dimes in the most odd places, like in the cuff of my capri jeans, in the mail box, under the carpet when we pulled it up to replace, when I step out of my car, my dad and I share the love of "collecting" when I was cleaning out my fabric closet, I was refolding and stacking swatches of fabric and out dropped a dime, and in the grass of our yard I saw something sparkling in the sun and it was a dime... I just love to find them, it brings a smile to my face everytime I spot one. *I've often told him that I can't get rich off of dimes, so please start sending paper money...* (Ha! only joking) I treasure everyone of them and hope he never stops sending me the little signs.<br />Brandi N.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683024005856756512.post-11608471968340854852011-03-05T10:24:33.432-05:002011-03-05T10:24:33.432-05:00(((LOVE))) YOU!

And when I was 9, my Mom remarried, and my step father was from hell. Anyway, after a very rough day, I woke up about 3:00 in the morning...and saw my dad standing at the bed, dressed in jeans and I smelled fish so strong. He loved to fish. He told me everything was going to be OK. <br />The next day my Mom was cleaning like crazy...said she couldn't get rid of a "fish" smell in the house and she had no idea where it came from! And, about five months after my first daughter was born...I woke in the night...and swear I saw him standing at her crib.<br /><br />And, two years ago I lost my Mom. Now, I get followed by butterflies. It really is strange, and they are always little yellow butterflies. Living in Upsate Ny, it gets cold and insects disappear about Sept. Well, my little yellow butterfly hung around until mid October this year. <br /><br />They do watch over us...I can feel them.<br /><br />Lots of hugs, <br />Debbie, Mom of Shannon<br />dgomin718@aim.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683024005856756512.post-57557727708322349832011-03-04T14:45:50.960-05:002011-03-04T14:45:50.960-05:00Thinking of you always.

It's a pain when those roots start growing back in. You are a most beautful lady. I loved the picture of you in the park (i think that's where it was taken). You are so little and I LOVED your converse! I would like a pair but wear a size 8 1/2 and converse would make my feet look like boats! LOL. I will stick to my skechers :) You guys are all so awesome. I can't say that enough. You guys are constantly in my thoughts and prayers. Would love to see pics of Kolin and Kaysha as well!

I actually felt bad for you when I read it b/c I feel this is YOUR blog and you will/can write what you want. I don't tend to refer to Karl as "Vinnie" very often because I felt that was "your" name for him but I personally don't think anything 'wrong' with you writing about Karl as Vinnie. (Except for the newbies to your Blog that might get onfused - haha!) :) <br /><br />Hope you're doing well.

My Mom could not keep a plant alive no matter what she did, after she died I took an African Violet from her home that was dried up, and near dead, a month to the day after she died that plant bloomed like nothing I had ever seen before, it was a joke between Mom and I that she had a brown thumb, I know this was her way of letting me know she was okay :) Flash forward a few years my daughter was around 7, (4 when Mom died) so she really didn't have memories of Mom, one day out of no where she says to me, Mommy does Grandma visit you while you are sleeping? I asked her to explain further and she was adament that Grandma was standing in her bedroom door the night before smiling as her, she even described what she was wearing ( things Mom wore when she was alive that Jess would never have remembered) I asked my daughter is it scared her and she said No Mommy Grandma just smiled and there was a light around her. Then she was gone and I went back to sleep I don't believe this was a dream as I said my daughter was way too young to remember details about Mom and was not a child that made things up. This brings me great comfort that our loved ones are around us.<br /><br />I hope you are feeling a bit better everyday, I didn't read your blog until after this horrible time in your life, so I know little about you and your Vinny but even myself being a stranger can see how much you two loved each other and its beautiful, someday when you are ready I would love to hear more of your love story, how you met etc keep going you will get there <br />xoBarb in Canadanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683024005856756512.post-53222116395147274972011-03-01T12:56:08.631-05:002011-03-01T12:56:08.631-05:00Awesome post Kim!
