When my daughter was about 4 years old, her cousin died.
It happened in Germany,
the child had fallen from a
high story window. She was
not much older than my child.
She was brought back to the Quad Cities,
(where we live) for burial.
Being my
daughter was so young, and
had barely known her cousin, we
decided not
to tell her of the death.
About a week after the funeral, my husband
and I were watching t.v in
the living room, it was
about 11 pm, our daughter
was in bed.
She walks out of the bedroom,
looks at us and announces, "There is a
ghost in my bedroom"
She didn't say this like a child
who just awoke from a nightmare,
she
said it so calmly, it gave me chills.
Before I was even able to ask her
what she saw, she returned to
her bedroom, we followed.
My daughter pointed to a corner,
and said " I woke up, there was a
little girl, with white all around her.
She was holding my baby (she
called dolls babies) she stood up,
came over and gave me a kiss,
told me
that she loved me, and her name,
and then she said, that she
came to tell me
goodbye."
I asked my daughter if the ghost
said anything else. "Yes she told
me her name, and her birthday.
I asked my daughter who it was,
she replied "It was my dead cousin
Karen."
I asked her what the birthday
was (I myself didn't know when Karens
birthday was, how could
my daughter know?)
I called my sister, and asked her
when Karen's birthday was. My child
was indeed correct.
How can I not believe my child,
she didn't even know
Karen had died.
My daughter ended up saying
Karen was an angel,
not a ghost, and just needed
to say goodbye.
My daughter is now 10 years
old, she believes in Angels,
she believes in ghosts. She believes
in the gift of sight. She believes it was given
to her. She believes it is a gift she'll forever have.
Feel free to email me,
(in fact I'd love to hear from you)
with your thoughts of this story.
