It was the day of his memorial. It sounds funny, but I remember it clearly because it’s the only day our house was full. Some of our family had started to trickle in so the sound of conversation hummed around me. I stood at my kitchen sink absentmindedly rinsing some dishes when my oldest daughter came bursting through the kitchen chasing … Read More
Hello Grief, I Remember You Well
I don’t believe in coincidence. It is something I openly make known. All coincidence has meaning. The synchronicity of the universe is beautiful if you just open yourself up to see it. There lies all the proof you need that our loved ones continue on the other side. Lately life has been all consuming. I had 4 different freelance projects … Read More
Pennies From Heaven – It’s Not Just A Story
Everyone has heard the concept of “pennies from heaven”. There is a saying that when a loved one misses you, they toss a penny down from heaven. While a mere coincidence to some, others see a synchronicity that just makes sense. Before my 7-year old son died, I believed in signs sent from the other side. However, looking back I didn’t … Read More
7 Is Too Young To Die
7 Is Too Young To Die was Originally published at Her View From Home. This was it. The moment I was dreading. The end. As I lay there in his hospital bed, holding him, I focused all of my attention on his chest. As the machine pumped, I could see it rise. Then lower. I tuned into the sound. Blocking … Read More
How Minnie Mouse Delivered A Message From Heaven
I love a message from heaven story. This is one I have not really shared. It’s one of my “this is going to sound crazy, but” stories. I typically reserve them for people closest to me. Those that won’t think I’ve completely lost my marbles. However, I believe they are important to share. Signs are everywhere! This story begins in February 2016. … Read More

8 Balloons Found from Cameron’s 8th Birthday Memorial Launch
September 30th would have been Cameron’s 8th birthday. It was our first without him here. To celebrate, family and friends all over participated in their own balloon launches very similar to the one we did at his memorial last December. We were inundated with photos and videos of people sending balloons up to Cameron in heaven. I know he was enjoying the … Read More
Thank You PBS For Making Me Cry
It’s unexpected. I’m standing at the sink rinsing dishes, loading the dishwasher. There is nothing special about this moment. It’s something I do all the time. My mind is filled with normal thoughts. I need to go out and bring the trash cans back in so we can take out the recycling. Grocery lists. Did I start the crock pot … Read More
My Orange Moon – Messages From Heaven
Have you ever seen an orange moon? Hang out at my house and I bet the frequency increases. That’s my reality. Here’s how it all started. The night before Cameron’s memorial, a few of us stood out by the pool. I had taken the dog out. My daughter wanted to “help”. My Mom joined, I think mostly to get out … Read More
Planning Our Next Milestone – Cameron’s Birthday
My heart has been heavy these last couple of weeks. September means a new milestone. A big one. Cameron’s birthday. He would have been 8 this year. I’m calling it 8/1 to note his first on the other side. How I wish more than anything that I had an almost 8 year old here! We would have been picking out a … Read More
