Bindy - i know what you mean about missing your Dad at times like these. I lost mine very suddenly the week before we found out that our little one was going to be a boy which kinda hurt a lot as Dad always wanted a boy and was blessed instead with 2 girls - anyhow i believe that he is watching over us and enjoying his grandson and yes i think that children are more open to spirits. I am sure your Dad is watching over you and your family and that Madeleine can see him.
My DD1 used to have an "imaginary friend" called Nanna, and she insisted it was Nanna Jean from the photos of my Nanna who'd passed away 4 years earlier. Apparently Nanna would come at night and DD1 would 'put on her wings' and they would go flying together. I'm a believer!
Marydean, wow, that's a terrific thing to happen to your DD1. How special.
Morgan, sorry you lost your Dad too, he would definately be looking over your little boy.
Gracie, I'm sorry your Mum passed away I am super close with my Mum. I believe you on her giving you the gift of your son.
You have all been so wonderful in your responses, you're all really sweet and know exactly what I'm going through so it helps me a lot. Thanks so much.
You know, Madeleine sleeps so well, I really think sometimes my Dad calms her and makes her the placid little girl she is, sort of a calming spirit around her.
Man...I miss him...I was looking at some pictures tonight of him holding me when I was a baby, he was so happy. I look at myself as a baby in those pictures and I was so happy to be held by him too. I really believe what you say Gracie in understanding how much your parents love you when you become one.
Bindy, I think it's wonderful that you still feel that connection and closeness, it sounds as if it has been a great comfort to you. Do you talk about it with other family members?
Just my Mum really, I can talk with her about anything. I did have a dream about him after he passed away. He told me to tell Mum that he thought she was the most beautiful woman he'd ever met. He also told me that he was okay where he was and that he was at peace now and was happy. He died of emphysema. I left work early on 22 August to rush to the hospital (I live an hour away) and he had not responded in 24 hours, he was in the ICU. When I arrived, I held his hand, told him I loved him and that we had decided on a name for our daughter. I told him "her name will be Madeleine". Then then opened his eyes but they weren't really focused and nodded his head. He acknowledged it. He died at 11pm that night oh how I miss him but know he's finally at peace. Sorry to ramble on about this! It just comforts me to know his spirit is still around...
What a beautiful thread, it made me all teary.
I know when I have a baby (hopefully soon) my Pop won't be around to meet them it is really comforting to read this thread and know that he actually will be around and they might meet him in a different way.
