There's also very unnoficial doctrine on "guardian angels" that are our deceased ancestors, and I wonder about that too. <BR/><BR/>I've had those moments where I'm doing something and all of a sudden thoughts of my grandma will pop in my head, and then the thought goes through my head that she might be close by. I sometimes shrug it off, but I wonder. <BR/><BR/>Oh, my dog was my buddy all growing up. (I had other friends of course, but he was a good, faithful dog who was always around.) He was pretty sick and old (he was 14 when he died) his last couple of years. <BR/><BR/>I don't recall struggling at all with his death--I knew it was inevitable and its not the same as when a close family member or friend passes. I have an "odd" story about when he died though.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04334846713290013451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877390877327125905.post-84615217399351204832007-06-14T09:05:00.000-06:002007-06-14T09:05:00.000-06:00PS...Chris, send me your dream!

No wonder he comes back to visit you often.Daisy Paigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05660203283643761038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877390877327125905.post-71670728186378845772007-06-14T09:04:00.000-06:002007-06-14T09:04:00.000-06:00I have always thought Dana watches us. My Mom thin...I have always thought Dana watches us. My Mom thinks I'm crazy because we've basically been taught that he's super-busy up in the spirit world teaching others the gospel that didn't have the opportunity to hear it on Earth. While I do think that's true, I'm sure Heavenly Father lets them take breaks once in a while, don't you think?<BR/><BR/>As for Maryann...she was lucky enough to meet and marry a widower named Jon, and become the 'second mom' to his two children. They are so happy together and those kids are awesome! We're all certain that Dana and Heidi (Jon's wife) are up there watching over all of us together. Shoot, maybe they're friends with Chartie's brother, and play fetch with Sherpa's dog!Daisy Paigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05660203283643761038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877390877327125905.post-71072973197140907012007-06-14T08:34:00.000-06:002007-06-14T08:34:00.000-06:00I echo Laurie--what a sweet, tender post. My mom ...I echo Laurie--what a sweet, tender post. <BR/><BR/>My mom had a similar dream a couple of years after my grandpa died. All she remembered was hugging my grandpa (he had really strong hugs) and then waking up crying happy tears.<BR/><BR/>I've dreamt about family members, but oddly my dog that was a part of my life from the time I was 7-21 (I picked him out of the litter as a puppy, and he died while I was in the mtc) is my most regular visitor from the great beyond in my dreams.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04334846713290013451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-877390877327125905.post-36380937752997503432007-06-10T00:16:00.000-06:002007-06-10T00:16:00.000-06:00That was a beautiful post to your brother.

How is Maryann doing nowadays? <BR/><BR/>I'm positive our relatives who have passed really do visit us in our dreams. I've had that happen, and it's such wonderful closure, it really is. It's so nice to know that while things are great up there, he's still down here watching over you, protecting you, sharing in your joys and sorrows. Or so it seems that's what the message was in your dream. :)Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12230701486383752817noreply@blogger.com
