ellie

I have to write about this before I forget…

I have been working like crazy, trying to get all my orders completed and shipped in time for Christmas.  Gigi and I are the only ones home now, so she was in there “helping” me.  I was stamping an order and the name on one of the discs was Ellie.  So, of course that got me thinking of my little one.  While I was working on this, Gigi started saying, “Baby, baby!”  I asked her, “Baby? Where?”  She nodded, pointed up, and said it again.  This went on for a bit.  I asked her if she could say Sophie and she just looked at me.  I asked her if she could say Ellie and she nodded and tried to say it.  I have a bulletin board over my work table and on the board is a “family” picture of ALL of us, drawn by Emma.  Gigi then looked at that, said baby again, pointed up, kept saying baby, and then went on playing.

At first I just thought it was strange.  Then, when I realized I had just stamped Ellie’s name, I thought…could it really be Ellie?  Could Gigi see her big sister?  Maybe it’s just my mind reading too much into things.  I don’t know, but I think I’ll choose to believe it was my tiny girl paying us a visit.

  4. A psychic once told me (about 6 weeks after Joseph died) that I will be aware of his presence, that I will sense, see and feel things. I could smell baby powder for quite a few months after her died. She also told me that children are especially connected to the spirit world and that my boys would 'play' with Joseph. One of my boys especially talks about 'Jophes' all the time and I swear he can see him. Connection is stamped out of us pretty early in life. There's nothing wrong with trusting your instinct on feeling her, in fact, everything right about it. x

  9. My friend has a little girl, born just one month before my little girl died.... when they came over to my house one time a few months later, we were sitting in the kitchen. The little girl began to look at the celing and laugh. and her eyes and head were moving around like she could see something up there and she was laughing and it just made me think she can see my daughter. That was one of the very few times I've had something happen where I thought my daughter was near me.
