My Son Sends A Message

If you are reading my blogs, you will know that whenever I find a penny on the ground, I believe it is a message from my son who passed away October 29, 2016. I think it is his way of letting me know he is around and to remember him. He should know that everyday he is in my thoughts and a sadness hovers around me now that he is no longer with me in human form. I found a dime once, but somehow I don't think dimes are messages.

Yesterday I wondered why I had not found a penny in awhile. Had he decided not to send me anymore messages? It made me sad as I looked on the ground, looking for a penny, but not seeing one!


Today his grandfather and I took his son to lunch and had a lovely time eating and talking. We
took pictures and on one shot I commented, "Hey, you remind me of pictures I have seen of Christ but your nose ring spoils the picture." His grandfather, sitting across from him said, "You look like Jesus."We all laughed that we had all thought the same thing. My grandson tells me he is letting his hair grow to donate it to Locks of Love. There was a time when my son had extremely  long hair....maybe its hereditary!

I had my grandson captive in the car as I ran some errands and I loved it.  Among other things we talked about his Dad. When I took him home and as I got out of the car to give him a hug, right at my feet I saw a penny.  My first thought was of my son and I figured he was letting me know he was happy that I was with his son. The penny was all beat up, scratched and difficult to see in the dirt, but I saw it. Seeing the penny, which was hard to see, made be think that it was another penny message from my son! But why was it so beat up? I wondered.

The next day, I went to a party at a friend's home and right where I sat, right in front of me, I saw a penny. "Hey, did anyone lose a penny?" No one claimed the penny so I took it as a sign from
my son. This time the penny was brand new and dated 2017. I tucked the penny in my pocket with good feelings that he was still somewhere near. Thank you, my son, I am so happy you remind me that you are near!
