I've had a few experiences with my mom......it never freaks me out though, I really like it.
Let's see, one was one night not long after she died I was really upset and thinking of her, and I was down in my kitchen in the dark (it was about 1 am.) I have this solar-powered windchime that sits in my kitchen window....when the sun is strong enough it makes the chimes go off. Well obviously it doesn't work in the dark......but I was sitting there in the kitchen and I said out loud something to the effect of "please just let me know if you are out there somewhere, I am having a really hard time right now." Well for some reason I looked over at my chimes and I said "Ok, how about if you can hear me, make my chimes go." I sat there and stared at the chimes for probably a minute, and then very slowly the pendulum began to move.....it swung gently until it went "ping" against one of the chimes very softly, and then it stopped.
Then a few months later I was sitting in my son's room nursing him in the middle of the night. I was kind of nervous about a surgical procedure I had coming up. Well my son had gotten these little bug toys that have light-up antennae.....the antennae only light up when you push them around (they have wheels on them.) I hadn't taken them out of the box yet and they were just sitting on the floor over by his closet. As I sat there, thinking that I wished Mom was around to be support for me for my surgery, a flash of light in the dark caught my eye.....I looked down and there were the little red lights of the bug antennae flashing. I was like "whaaaaaaat?" It stopped and I thought it was a fluke....maybe the vibrations from me rocking the chair made the go off....so I started trying to make them go, banging my feet on the floor, rocking really hard.......they didn't flash. Finally I said "Mom was that you?" and they began to flash again!
Those are just two......but I haven't had any in awhile and I miss it. I really want to go to that John Edward show.
