blown away...completely

spent time w/my favorite momma today.
also spent time with sister bird and a caring
hospice social worker, named Glenda.
she gave us over an hour of guidance and ways 
we can help mom as she continues her journey.


such good info...
more on that later.


when it was just daddy, mom and me 
in the room she began to talk. 
here's just one of the several things she said..
mom. "how are they doing that?"
me. "what are they doing?"
mom. "praying for me."
me, "yes they are. who is mom, aides or angels"
mom, " i think it's angels."
me, " that amazing!"
mom, "yes it is."

she gets quiet again for several minutes then said to daddy
"everett, we need to pray for them."
me, "who mom, the aide or the angels?"
she, "both."


so i hold my parents hands and pray. 
we pray for all the residents, staff, aides
and for restful sleep for them all.
we thank God for his protection to us as
we've put many miles on the road and for safety.
i thank him for Godly parents.


fast forward an hour or so.
mom.,"was it just u and me?"



me, "where"
mom, " u and me and a boy name sue."
i just chuckle

pretty soon she goes back to that question.
"was it just u and me praying in heaven?"
me,"no momma, daddy was with us."
mom, " oh good."


she rarely opens her eyes yet
there is much expression in her face.
she makes noises, or says words,
"okay." " ahh" . "unhum"
her hands are restless, she puts her left arm 
in the air, waves it a bit. does it again later, same movements.
i know she doing something for sure, 
but i don't know what.
and thats okay.
this time is between her and God.
she's got business to take care of and He's not 
ready for her yet.


for me to be observing parts of this process...
BEYOND WOW!. 
such a gift...

i am weary so will share more conversations
another time.
