2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | "Home Sweet Home" Ghost and ALL ! I was inspired by lovespanp's thread "OK I know I have a ghost" It brought back so many memories of my mother in law Geneve Jean "Jenny". She was always the jokester. We have lived in my in laws Jenny and Marion's home now for almost 17 yrs. This is the same home my DH grew up in his whole life. It was willed to my DH when she passed. Having a home of our own free and clear has allowed us to have a safe place, a home to raise our children in and I will always be grateful to them. By giving us this home it took us out of a bad area of town that was ridden with drugs and bad people all around us and into the suburbs with safe streets and neighbors who we can trust. We lived in our first home, which was my childhood home for ten long years. It didn't always use to be that way but sadly it became a place we did not want to raise our daughter. I lost my father in law two years after meetting my husband in 1987 and my mother in law in five years after we were married in 1996. I will never forget what they did for us. I loved them and I miss them both terribley. I would give up this home in a minute if that meant having in laws back in my life again. But knowing she is hear with us in spirit brings so much joy to my heart. Every time I smell roses or perfumes in the house when no one is here I know that it is Jenny. So with a big smile and a little sadness in my heart I say "Hello Jenny" and tell her she being funny as usual. Plus I think she come around a lot during the sprint and summer months because she sees that I'm killing all of the outdoor plans. Which by the way are the ones she planted and are still there today. She did love workeingin the yard every day keeping them looking great. So, I welcome my Ghosts any time because they are a part of who I am and who my children have become due to their generosity.

| What a great tribute Dawn! I believe that people's spirits surround us. My Mom passed away when I was 13 and I carry her in my heart and believe she is my guardian angel

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | Wow what a lovely story. I live in a house built in 1784. We have our friendly spirits too. On a certain days I can smell food cooking when there is nothing that as cooked or being cooked at the moment. When things are being done in the house they come to watch what is going on. We hear creaking up the stairs when all pets are on the bed. I would not have it any other way

| That's so sweet... my mom has been visited by family members and I once when I was in an awful car accident. We have power lines that go over my folks' house so we always have lots of energy, lol. All good. I've only once felt something bad. There's a man with a top hat there and a little girl that loves to dance. I've seen the man and my mom's seen the girl. We also have a lot of residual activity. Never felt scared...just that uneasiness of being watched.
