~The lyrics to the song playing~

Blackmore's Night

Now you're gone
We're left to carry on

In the wind I hear your song
With every passing hour
I'm feeling more alone
But we will meet again
Someday…

The morning that I was getting ready to go to my mom's funeral, my cat would not leave me alone. He followed me to each room that I went into, meowing like crazy until I picked him up. I instantly thought, that's my mom trying to comfort me. He did not stop this until we left for the funeral. I picked him up several times and cried into his fur and said "I love you MaMa." I used to take my mom for a lot of rides. I have a truck, which was too high for her to climb into without trouble, so I had a little stool that I used to put down onto the ground for her to step onto to get into the truck. On the way to the church, I put the stool onto the ground and stepped on it to get into the truck just like she used to do. When we got home my boyfriend brought the stool into the house. That same cat instantly jumped onto the stool and started rubbing all over it. I knew that it was my mom again, letting me know that she saw me do that gesture. I have had a peace lily that I got from my grandmothers funeral 8 years ago. It has NEVER bloomed once in those 8 years.The night of my mom's funeral I walked by the lily and to my complete and total amazement, it had a BLOOM on it. My mother gave me these 3 signs all on the day of her funeral to help comfort me. I got validation that these signs were not just in my head when a friend gave me the link to this site. I had never heard of this before. The day of my mom's funeral will forever burn in my mind for more than one reason, make that 3 reasons, that's my favorite number by the way. I got absolute proof that she is in heaven, alright and in peace, and wants me to have peace too. I thank God for allowing her to do that for me.

I have written my story here before, but as it continues, I feel I must write it again. My mom died on April 30th, 2003. I had gotten a Calla Lily plant from my grandmother's funeral in 1996. I am sure that it was blooming when I got it, but after that it did not bloom ONCE in the 7 years afterwards. My mom was buried on May 3rd, 2003. Returning home after the grave-side services, I was so very down, empty, alone, and devestated. I was walking from the kitchen to the living room and happened to look at the plant that I had gotten from my grandmothers funeral. Remember the one that hadn't bloomed in 7 years? To my UTTER AMAZEMENT that plant had a very tall very BEAUTIFUL flower standing straight up. I KNEW that it was from my mom. Since that bloom, I have received many more on that same plant. In fact, it is now nearly the end of September and I have not been without a flower on that plant since her funeral. Every time one bloom starts dying, another one sprouts up. In fact, I had 3 flowers on the plant at one time. So when you lose someone, look around, they may be leaving you signs. Even if you don't get one, from all of the stories told here, PROVES that our loved ones are in Heaven STILL loving and watching over us, doesn't it?

I love my mom and miss her so very much. But I do find some comfort in the gift that she has been sending me for all of these months, the beautiful blooms. Ma, I will ALWAYS miss you and the love that I have for you will never fade away. I am looking forward to the glorious day that I will see you again. Thank you for letting me know that you are at peace, and are here with me. I will ALWAYS treasure my flowers from you to me. And Ma, I WILL FOREVER LOVE YOU AND HOLD YOU CLOSE TO MY HEART.
Love, Debbie
