Here's a little bit of background first

My house is owned by Dp's parents, we rent it off them.
It's was the In laws parents house, (FIL's parents Peggy and Sydney)
All the houses in our street are war veterans homes, that the army built 60 yrs ago, Peggy and Sydney came in, chose number twenty and lived here for the rest of their lives.
FIL actually was born and grew up in this house! Now my little boy will be.

Ever since we moved in last November I've been seeing a face pop out and back around the french doors connecting the loungeroom and dining room. Just out of the corner of my eye. I never got any kind of bad vibe from the house and the action seemed playful so i didn't worry too much about it. I've been seeing him all the time since, and Dp has seen him a couple of times too.

Well last night we were at the Inlaws for dinner and i said to FIL, "Kevin, i think i've seen your dad around the house" And told him about the face, DP backed me up about seeing it too.

Kevin told us about what his dad looked like and described our Face to a tee!!! A little shorter than DP, long thin face, and dark hair and features.
And he also said that although he doesn't believe in that sorta stuff he wouldn't be surprised as Sydney died in our bedroom.

You can't know how great that makes me feel, the man I'm naming my son after (middle name) might still be with us here. I dunno, the thought kind of makes me feel so much safer, and like bub will have someone who loves him watching over him like that.

The only other thing thats happened in this house that we couldn't explain was one night just after DP go home all the smoke detectors in the house started going off, simultaneously, for about and minute and a half and then stopped altogether at the same time. (That freaked us out a little bit)

I honestly love this house, i feel so safe here. And now when i see the face i just cheerfully smile "hey sydney!"
