I cant listen to this song without ending up in floods of tears. (doesn't help when you have the album and play it over and over and over).
It's our song for "Grandma". our special song, When we hear it, we know Grandma is watching and hearing us!
Honestly, I do believe in this stuff, when I think of my dad, his song always comes on the radio (I have proof...Jackie witnessed it!!) and when we talk of Grandma, this song ALWAYS comes on the radio too (we being the 2 boys and me!)
This morning, while we were on the way to school, Aaryn was telling us how much he missed Grandma , We were waiting at the round-about, giving way to traffic, a butterfly flew in front of the car windscreen, Aaryn said matter of factly, DONT run over Grandma will you,? So there I was, sitting, waiting for the butterfly to flutter off, (with no doubt, very cross drivers behind me!) As Madame Butterfly flew off, this song came on and the 3 of us just looked at each other. VERY SPOOKY MOMENT!
You know, She said she was coming back as a Butterfly and she has!
So next time you see a butterfly, be careful what you say or do in front of it, it could be Heather, making sure your ok!
and here she is , doing what she LOVED to do...SCRAPBOOKING!!! (This will be the last sooky post I make, I hope!!)
This is the way you left me, I'm not pretending. No hope, no love, no glory, No Happy Ending. This is the way that we love, Like it's forever. Then live the rest of our life, But not together. Wake up in the morning, stumble on my life Can't get no love without sacrifice If anything should happen, I guess I wish you well A little bit of heaven, but a little bit of hell This is the hardest story that I've ever told No hope, or love, or glory Happy endings gone forever more I feel as if I feel as if I'm wasted And I'm wastin' everyday This is the way you left me, I'm not pretending. No hope, no love, no glory, No Happy Ending. This is the way that we love, Like it's forever. Then live the rest of our life, But not together. 2 o'clock in the morning, something's on my mind Can't get no rest; keep walkin' around If I pretend that nothin' ever went wrong, I can get to my sleep I can think that we just carried on This is the hardest story that I've ever told No hope, or love, or glory Happy endings gone forever more I feel as if I feel as if I'm wasted And I'm wastin' everyday This is the way you left me, I'm not pretending. No hope, no love, no glory, No Happy Ending. This is the way that we love, Like it's forever. Then live the rest of our life, But not together. A Little bit of love, little bit of love Little bit of love, little bit of love [repeat] I feel as if I'm wasted
And I'm wastin' everyday This is the way you left me, I'm not pretending. No hope, no love, no glory, No Happy Ending. This is the way that we love, Like it's forever. To live the rest of our life, But not together.

Hi tess,
i believe the same as you that my family that have passed on are butterflies, many people think im nuts but its so true.
when my nephew died we came home from the hospital and there was a little white butterfly on the front door.
my grandmothers memorial white butterflies flying around.
we had a family reunion again the white butterflies.
same as the song, mine is i think i like it here, after nan went every-time i turned the ipod shuffle on this song would come on.
they may have left us but they are always in our hearts and fluttering around us.
hugs always
nicole
My grandma sent a dog to visit me the day after her funeral. I had spent the day working in my garden (a chore my grandmother would have approved of) and this cute little dog pestered me all day being there, watching me, 'helping' me.
I had never seen that dog in the neighbourhood before, and I haven't seen it since. I truly believe it was sent to 'check on me' just like your butterflies.
{{hugs}} Tess.
