I was sitting
outside this morning with my first cup of coffee for the day, thinking of my youngest sister celebrating her 1st birthday in Heaven today.
She would have / should have, been 63 today.
So I was talking to God like I always do in the early mornings, and I asked him to tell my sister Leslie, that I was thinking of her on her birthday.
When we were little, I could never say "Leslie June", so the best I could do was call her
"Etchy June".
And "Etchy June" is what she remained to me, for all of her life - up until her death in May of last year.
Suddenly, I was treated to 7-10
beautiful Cardinals feeding right in front of me! (they were hard to count,
because they kept kept hopping and moving around!)
If Cardinals are visitors from Heaven like the old-timers say, then I was
truly blessed with a visit this morning!! Instead of gifting my baby sister Leslie
on her birthday....
I think she was gifting me.
