Title: Is this just coincidence?
Post by: purplenanny on May 07, 2015, 07:53:23 PM
We went to a beautiful bluebell wood today and enjoyed an extremely long walk in the sunshine.

This place was a favourite of my dear Auntie's and we last took her there the year before she died. It was hard work as she was in a wheelchair but we really had a lovely time. It was her last outing with us, so very special memories

My Auntie and my Mum (twins) loved Robins and whenever I see one, I think of them. Now, while I was at the bluebells I remembered our last trip so I asked my Auntie , if she was around, let me see a robin ( I know it sounds crazy  ::) (http://::)). I did hear one, but did not see it.

When I got home, there on my lawn ,  2 baby robins, being fed by their parents!! I was so excited to see them! I can't believe it!

So, I may be mad, but I am very happy mad!!

Aw, whether it was or wasn't sent, it's made you smile, and that's what counts.  I was picking my granddaughter up from school the other week and noticed a fluffy white feather sitting in a small well next to her seat in the car, I don't know how it got there but I left it there, I smiled :-)

Oh that's lovely PN. Whether coincidence or not it has made you happy.

My baby daughter who passed away.....her name was Robyn. When I see them in my garden I always smile.

Enjoy your memories, they are so very precious.

Stranger things have happened  ;)

Bluebells are hypnotic - the colour under shade plus the scent ……. FabULus!  we have both white and blue in our garden but the colour isn't as dense in the bright sunlight.

They were absolutely stunning CLKD and the scent was heavenly

We have some in our garden, but quite sparse and only the blue. The spanish ones are a stronger blue but apparently are thugs and if not careful will take over the english ones.

There were sweet little baby goats there as well. Not amongst the bluebells  ::) (http://::)) - in a seperate pen with their parents. Very cute!
