Signs

Do you believe in signs? When my mother in law died, we found pennies everywhere. We found them in the most unusual places. She made both girls needlepoint Christmas stockings. The first Christmas after she died, we got the stockings out and believe it or not, they both had a penny in them. I read a book called A Redbird Christmas and since then I’ve always thought of Redbirds as a visit from a loved one. We have consistently had a Redbird in our yard this year. I am always looking for signs from Richard. I believe there have been many. These signs bring me peace. Today I said out loud, Richard send me a big sign today. While driving to a meeting, I missed my turn and the next road I came to was Burch Ave. I’ve never seen this road and did not know it existed. For those who don’t know, Richard’s middle name is Burch. I am thankful for these signs and will continue to ask for and find comfort in them.
