I am so thankful for so many things this year, but most of all for little Nora. As everyone knows I am finishing up my book so it will be available for sale on Black Friday, tomorrow morning. In order to do that I had to fill some holes, such as photos I still needed to take of the various items I have depicted in the books. Like I took a shot of Sharon&#8217;s Noah Bracelet, a shell, a hair ribbon, items such as the ones throughout my last volumes to tie in with the stories. Well the final object I wanted to have was a deflated balloon with a ribbon on it to represent the balloons we launched for Noah on his birthday. I did not have one around the house and was going to need to go out and fight the crowds at stores to get one tomorrow. <\/p>\n<p>But it appears someone was able to help me out. As I drove down my street last night I noticed some blue ribbon in the neighbor&#8217;s yard and thought it might work, I would just do the ribbon and note and not worry about a balloon. Earlier this morning I was working on the book and walked to get the ribbon when I was taken by surprise, there was actually a deflated blue balloon attached to it! And on that balloon I could make out the words &#8220;Baby Boy&#8221;. Apparently it was from a baby shower for a little boy. It would be perfect. I could not believe what I found.<\/p>\n<p>I thought it was very fitting that Noah gave me the last piece of the puzzle to complete my Volume 3. And nonetheless on Thanksgiving, when just earlier Sharon and I mentioned how nice it would be to have little Noah physically with us, but we at least wished he would be with us spiritually. I believe he once again found a way to communicate his presence to us.<\/p>\n<p>Many say it is all just coincidences. But I just think there are too many to dismiss that easily. I have documented every &#8220;coincidence&#8221; just so someday I can look back and know I was not imagining things.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Thanksgiving Noah!<\/p>\n<p>PS. I know a bunch of you were wondering how Jinjer is doing. She had her knee ligament injury fixed a day ago and spent the night in a lot of pain both nights, but she was a trooper and with the help of good drugs, she eventually rested comfortably. It will be a few weeks before she feels even close to herself, but she will get there. Thanks for all the well wishes and support. It has been a rough few days, we love our dogs like children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First of all let me say a quick Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
