Teresa, what a beautiful gathering of gifts that Michael left you...signs of his eternal love that will be a constant reminder in your garden. I love those "little" signs from our kids.

I was going to keep this to myself but now I'm sharing.

I love to garden and when I have challenges in my garden I like to find things in nature to use.  The rain water was coming off the corner of the house making a hole in the soil, so I decided to fill it in with rocks.

As I was walking up and down a shore line along the river I started looking for rocks to use.  As I was doing this I kept finding rocks in the shape of a heart.  I know Michael was leaving them for me.

It is hard to understand any of this in the context of faith...there were many experiences prior to my son's leaving, a kind of "knowing" something was going to occur...what I thought about God has dramatically shifted since, He is a being outside of time and death and life are in His hand, but this does not change the impact of grief on me...and the wondering, did I do something? All I know is that I miss my son and my heart is shattered...

Dolly, those signs our loved one continues...thanks for sharing..

Anne I agree with you, the devil does his work as well. 

LR, I'm right there with you.    I ask myself why didn't I hear something in his voice but at the same time I thank God for that last phone call.  I will forever remember every word and cherish that call. 

My daughter yesterday brought me the photo disk from his service.  I haven't seen it since that day.  It was hard but I had to watch it.  Starting with his newborn picture and ending with him as an adult.  I cried, cried and cried some more.  But then I noticed that in 95% of the pictures he was smiling.  That was the Michael everybody knew. 

God is holding up one side and Michael is holding up the other side.  When I'm hitting bottom the hardest I ask Michael to hold my hand.  In my heart I know he is doing just that.
