Joshua Feeling Mimi When Sleeping

 Dear Kids, 

This story is something from Joshua. 

I did alone time with all of you today. After the rough day everyone had yesterday, I just decided that each of you needed some quality time and alone time with mom, your love buckets were a bit empty. It was perfect to spend time with everyone and to have a chance to just talk to you all, especially about how you are doing. 

When I was talking to Joshua I asked him if he ever felt Mimi around him. He said, "Oh yes, I feel her when I sleep."

I said, "Really buddy? When and how do you feel her?"

"She just comes to me in my sleep. The other night she was rubbing my arms helping me to fall asleep."

I could just see her doing that too. I could see it in my mind's eye, the way she would take time to make sure he was okay - especially with how much he needs help with good dreams. Of course Mimi would make sure his dreams are okay.

He said that when we do personal prayers and we pray for angels to be with him that Mimi comes to help. I told him, "She is your guardian angel you know."

"Yeah mom... I know." And then he smiled. 

So simple. And so beautiful. He has been VERY insistent about saying prayers with me before bed - even when Brent says prayers with him, it isn't right and he has to say prayers with me. I think this is why. It's because Mimi comes to him when we say prayers together. And that just feels really good knowing that he is close enough to the spiritual world to know when she is there with him. 

Here's the thing... I know she is like that for EACH OF YOU. Her grandkids were ALWAYS her priority when she was living on this earth, and I know you are each a priority now. Keep a soft heart and open heart in order to feel the other side, especially her when she's close. She'll always be there for you. I know that. She's there for me too. 

I love her so much. I hope you all know that. I love my momma. I miss her. And I know you miss her too. 

I love you kids, 

Your Mom
