Comment from Terry Broxson

Excellent

On Saturday, and no saved sixes. Zoe loved butterflies, too. She especially liked the Monarchs. She traveled to the interior of Mexico to visit the winter sanctuary. As a Master Gardener, her specialty was herbs and butterflies. How to attract and care for them. There is a wedding venue in Whitewright, Texas that has "Zoe's Butterfly Garden." Beautifully written. Terry.

Hi Terry, I read my reviews right away as it is the highlight of my day.
But because it is so hard to go back and forth with thank you responses, it is always easier to respond to the most recent ones. And so often I get behind and this is what happens.

I don't like that feature here. I remember when Jan was here she tried to get that changed so we could better respond in the appropriate order.

However, I do appreciate you just the same as if I had just gotten this review ten minutes or an hour ago.

So thank you so very much for these lovely comments and for your kindness and patience. I do appreciate your dear comments about my mom.

I especially loved your comments about Zoe, and how she loved butterflies too. I knew that as I loved your story about the wonderful gardens you have kept going in her honor. I am sure she is looking down at you and beaming with pride!

Thanks again, my dear friend! Love, Debi

We have this I'm common. When my mom died my sisters were with her and called me as they held her. Just then, a butterfly brushed my face as if to kiss me goodbye and I was in bed. It was some kind of moth butterfly. Tears streamed from me. It was her Spiro I felt it. I agree that your mother reaches you tgroufh butterflies. I've also had a dream where I cried as I tried to hug my mom and I felt lifer and so much love. It was after a car hit us full speed on my side. I saw my mom laughing and joyfully smiling with other relatives I noticed and I tried to hug her and gently was told I have to wait. It was real. Pillow soaked with tears.

Beautiful poem and very meaningful. May your money rest in God's Love eternally and may her spirit be light as butterfly wings

Peace and comfort to yoy and yours,

Alex x

I actually saw my mom in my room two nights after she passed but when I reached out for her she disappeared. I bet we could tell mom stories all night long. I wish we had the chance. I am always here to listen. Hugs.

Thanks again, my sweet friend! Love, Debi

A beautiful and well written poem. It has wonderful sensory descriptions.
The poem is an easy read that had this reader wanting more.
Were the butterflies above you at the golf course from your mom's halo?
Thank you!

Hi Gunner, we have a Gunner in our family too. Whether it's your real name or not, I love it. And thank you for such kind comments about my butterflies poem. That golf day was about a week after she died, and we only golfed nine holes but those two butterflies circled above my head for all nine holes. At first a few of my friend's husbands said it must have been some smell that I was wearing, as they would not go near the others. Then my friends (the wives) set them straight and said it was mom's spirit. But I just figured it was God's way of telling me that she was ok. Thanks again for the awesome review, my friend.

Wowutterfly nets so , another amazing connection between us dearest Debi,
My mother was crazy about butterflies... and when she passed I saw one that stayed with me for days and days..
When we were young we had butterfly nets so we could catch them and she would pin them... I wonder where those are now?
And, of course I love butterflies too...and, love your wonderful poem..
Hugs, Lisa

Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem of your mother and butterflies. My mom always sees eagles when she thinks of my dad or has a problem that needs to be addressed. The eagles seem to tell her everything will be okay.
