This story comes from D Page, whose blog mythic musings is always a pleasure to read. It’s a wonderful example of spirit communication through dreams, but has a terrific twist!

The day he asked me to marry him was 12/12/92. I was living in Colorado, near Denver. He was flying into Denver when a blizzard struck. It took the plane approximately 5 hours of circling before it landed, because the snowfall was so heavy. After a safe but tense landing, Larry got off the plane, kissed the ground, and handed me an engagement ring. We spent the night at an airport hotel. No one could leave because of the blizzard.
I did say “Yes!”, so Larry moved into an apartment with my daughter Desiree and I. I knew we would be facing allot of issues. The one that worried me the most was the fact that the marriage would be interracial. Larry is African American, I am white European. We had already had problems with our friendship being an issue because we worked at the same dealership.
The next morning I shared the dream with Larry. I told him what Nita had said. He said: “Nita is my mother. Her name is Juanita, but everyone calls her Nita. Then I asked him about the afro. “Yes, that’s her,” he responded.
We moved back to San Diego in 1993. We stayed a few weeks at Larry’s family’s home. I was home alone, cleaning one afternoon, when I found a photograph of the woman in my dream: a beautiful black woman with “big hair”. It was Nita. Somehow, I knew she would always be looking out for us.
I LOVE love LOVE this story!! : )
neat postscript, d! 😉
What a beautifulstory; thanks for sharing it.
Larry understands you, Debra!
I love this one too! Awesome.
I had asked Larry (my husband) if he felt odd or weird about my meeting his mother this way– after she died.
He said "Nothing is weird being with you!"
beautiful story! loved it!
Great story – never had anything like this happen in my dreams to date.
I just realized this is two different stories – the one she directs you to on her website is also extremely interesting.
I've been meaning to read this – wow, what a wonderful story!
Dont'cha just love it when a plan comes together! Beautiful, beautiful story. Mom-in-Law giving her blessings by letting her new daughter-in-law to be that she was with them. No price on that. cj
gosh, certainly not me… this is quite an event. would have frightened me a bit. 'til i understood it..
I went over to mythic musings to check her out. Very interesting person! You sure do follow an eclectic bunch of sites, Trish!
