Guardian Angels
 

I don't know if I believe in ghosts or not, but I definitely believe in the bond of family-- both past and present.  I came to know this when I was expecting Rebecca.

A few people may know that I lost a child prior to becoming pregnant with Rebecca.  When I was about 3 months pregnant for Rebecca  and experiencing many of the scary symptoms once again of a miscarriage, I laid on the couch all one day.  I was so scared.  Then all of a sudden I felt a weight upon my thigh and thought for sure a cat had come in and sat on me.  Then I realized we didn't have a cat any longer, but I wasn't scared any longer.

It was at that moment that I knew it was the hand of one of my deceased grandmothers laying a reasurring hand on me to let me know everything would be o.k.  and it was.

It was the first and last time I ever experienced anything like that.  However,all during that pregnancy , I had a sense that Grandmother and/or Grammy were my guardian angels.
