Happy Birthday Paul!! You are always in my thoughts, but this month especially more so. Rad and I went out and enjoyed this beautiful day. It was made even more special when we went to the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum and visited the butterfly conservatory. It was a beautiful sight especially knowing the significance of the butterfly to life here and beyond.
You were on the minds of many today which I know you had to sense. I talked to Jeff and he told me as he worked though the night his thoughts were mostly of you. Barbara and I talked of you in the morning, I had messages when I returned this evening from Auntie Rose, your cousin Jackie, my neighbor Cheryl and emails from Ruthie and Nancy. How nice to know we are loved. You are alive in my heart and memories. Happy Birthday my first born son, I love you now and always.
More on butterflies:
The butterfly is a symbol of hope.
Think of the first stage of its life - as a caterpillar, like us, crawling on the earth.
Then comes the chrysalis - apparently dead - as when we put the body in a casket.
The 3rd stage, is the beautiful butterfly - completely changed - a free spirit, no longer earth-bound.
