I took C to the park the other day since Md forgot it's summer and we have been having beautiful weather! ( usually it's hot hot hot with humidity) we walked along the river and he rode his bike and we had a picnic. The entire time we were there we saw lots and lots and lots of butterflies.
Honestly I am not sure what I believe anymore in the religous aspect because of everything that happened. To not have a single prayer answered especially when your prayers turn to just take him so we don't have to make the decision...it's hard. But I can't overlook the fact that after Scott passed away I began seeing butterflies everywhere. Even the day of his funeral one landed on the flowers that was on top of his casket at the cemetery. It's cool how butterflies will fly right past me their wings almost skimming across my skin or even driving in my car how I will get a fly by from one right by the window. I can't help but feel it's my Scott coming to visit in some form. I even sometimes say hello. There are times that I'm feeling down and then I'll see a butterfly and it will brighten my mood.
crazy....maybe...helps me get through each day yes...so I'll take it!
My favorite quote is "what a caterpillar calls the end, the rest of the world calls a butterfly" I e found myself often questioning my faith... After losing Trinity, I questioned weather I prayed hard enough, often enough. I took look at butterflies as though my sweet girl is visiting me. seems like they show up at the perfect moments! I hope Scott's "visit" through butterflies, made you heart smile a little!

I have noticed a lot of butterflies here in VA lately...I think how beautiful...I never took time to notice them before this summer...I like how you see butterflies as your son making a visit to you...no, I love it! It is so beautiful...when I see butterflies I will think of you...

Beautiful pictures! Yes - lots of butterflies out right now, and they always make me smile and think of my Marco too. It's certainly not crazy - just a way for us to see some beauty. Glad that you had a nice outing to the park and that Scott surrounded you with beautiful butterflies :)
Hugs,

These pictures are gorgeous. I am so glad that Scott is sending you some reminders through one of the most delicate and beautiful creatures on this earth. Butterflies always seem to land on our dog. A big slobbery Golden Retriever names Pickles. Pickles was bought for our family as a Christmas gift not even a month after Arianna died in order to help us all heal. So although its odd that such a beautiful creature chooses to land in what is seemingly such a dangerous place it is really quite perfect. He always stands perfectly still as if he knows. I can't wait to meet you in DC and share in person our beautiful Angels.
