| Before Mom died, in one of our many talks, I made her promise once she was gone that she would come back and give me a sign that she was OK. That she was happy and with people she loved. I thought I had gotten this sign a few weeks ago when I was driving home from work just thinking about how much I missed her and how sad I was without her and I looked up and seen a beautiful rainbow. Now I am not so sure that was "the sign". I dream about Mom almost every night. Usually they are just dreams about normal things, like shopping or having dinner or watching TV and in then she is here with us just doing the everyday sort of things with us. Well About a week ago I had a dream, which I know was her sign to me. Some of the details are hazy, but I remember enough. Greg and I were walking into a big house that was all decorated for Christmas (Mom's favorite Holiday). There were other people looking at the Christmas tree and we walked into that room and started looking at it too. All of a sudden the tree started moving slightly and Mom kinda faded in from the middle of the tree. I hugged her and she hugged me so tight and good. I know she was there. I started talking to her about stuff. I was asking her questions about who she has visited and if she was "Working Heaven like she could "Work the Room" of a funeral home (a little inside joke she and I had). Then I asked her if she was with MeMaw. All of a sudden MeMaw was there too. When I asked Mom that question she said "she sure was." She said when she died she went right from Mine, Laura's and Dads arms right into MeMaw's. She told me she missed me and that she couldn' stay long. Then Laura came into the room and I told her to hurry up and talk to Mom, because she couldn't stay long. Laura went and hugged her and they talked and then I woke up! I know this was her way of telling me she was OK. I woke up and I felt all weird inside. But it was a good weird. Like I had just talked to Mom! |
