Cardinal in the Night

Niece Kelsey sent me this picture of her February 17th inspiration ❤️ A Cardinal in the Night.....a bird that holds special meaning to me as a reminder of God's presence, protection and steadfast love....

Dime Signs

The Signs are real:
My hubby Chad just found an old recording of Mary talking to me on the phone - the last months in her life back in 2007/2008.  Hearing her voice was mesmerizing.... Like an angel was speaking.  Tears of love rolled down my face.  Such a beautiful sound.  I sat there in my recliner for a few soaking in this memory.  

Then I pushed the recliner down to get up and there was a dime right there at my feet!!!

Visit from Dad

The signs are real:
I sat next to a nice man on my first flight from Corpus to Dallas who looked so much like my dad I was a little shocked. As I was chatting with him, I was amazed at all the similar intrests he had to my dad too... As our quick flight was about to end, I wondered if by chance he had the same name as my dad.  I had to know!  I introduced myself and then held my breath....... until I gasped, as he said his name was David!  My dad's name too!! 
What a beautiful sign from above ✈️👼🙏♥️

High in the Sky - Signs

High in the sky, on my way to our Mom's surprise 75th Birthday party in Texas♥️👼🙏✈️ It never fails, Mary always sends me a sign when I least expect it! #LovingMaryForever  #neveralone #angelsamongus #signs

Caring Cardinals - A Cardinal Experience

Cardinals of Love and Signs from Above 

On March 22, 2008, a little red bird flew to my side during the darkest moment of my life – I had just received the news that my sister Mary had lost her life. I was standing outside in the breezeway of my home, lost in grief when a beautiful red cardinal landed on the shrub in front of me. He took my breath away; he was such a vibrant sight. For a moment, my pain disappeared. The very next day I flew to Texas to prepare for my beautiful sister’s wake. As I was driving down the main road to the funeral home I couldn't believe what was flying right next to me. Not one, but two beautiful red cardinals, racing me to the home. The little red bird was just the beginning to the many signs and synchronicities that showed me that there is more after this life and there is more all around us.

A few months later, I started a blog titled www.lovingmaryforever.com in honor of my sister Mary because she was an AMAZING light of love. Her light shined wherever she was our entire life. I was three years older and felt blessed to be viewed as her star. I loved that she often called me her Silly Sis. She loved you before she knew you – it was in her DNA. In the early stages of blogging to my Mary, amazing things started happening. Signs were EVERYWHERE. I documented each amazing occurrence one by one and my faith grew as these confirmations revealed my sister was still with me. My grief lessened and hope prevailed. My little red bird kept appearing at crazy places and special times (along with making a home in my backyard), making her appearance to me along with fun synchronicities! I giggle just thinking about her.

I am alright today but feel sad at times when missing her physical presence, her amazing Mary smile that lit up every room she entered, and the loving energy she always radiated to everyone in her contact. Sharing my Mary's story has given so many people hope, so I will continue to cherish her memories and share her signs of love to help others heal from their loss too. Also, with a soft nudge from above, Little Red Bird Chirps was born on Facebook. It is a comforting place to visit that confirms what the little red bird is – a sign from above! 

Grateful, loyal and blessed to call Mary my sister.

More Mary comforts

I had been having a rough week at work, the transition has been hard.  I truly believe my Mary has been showing up to comfort me.

On my way to work this morning, walking from Penn Station, a homeless man stepped away from the wall towards me and smiled, then  held up a gold microphone to his mouth and said "Good Morning Mary" 😯🙏👼

Mary Comfort

Oh, I had probably one of the worst days at work today, so bad it brought tears, but on the way out of the building I started chatting with a nice lady who was in the elevator with me and also leaving the building.... She was talking about  her cat 🤣🤣🤣.... A topic I enjoy.   Before we parted ways, I found out her name - it was Mary!!!

She's always there to cheer me up.  Amazing!! 🙏👼

Hello From Heaven

Just after I found and moved this lil black and white bird in the middle of the sidewalk, I looked at my phone and got this email..... My heart dropped! 

  

It ended up being from  a spam email BUT, I feel like it was a hello from Heaven!
