Booooo! Scary and Spooky Stories
I always had this idea that when babies are born into this world, they're very sensitive to those "other" beings. I don't know where I got that idea, maybe somebody taught me or I read it somewhere. I do not consider this as a bad thing though, although at times, it may seem spooky and scary.
When I gave birth to my twins, this idea was not really the focus of my parenting efforts. I mean who would be thinking about these "other" beings when we're busy taking care of newborns, right? So in a hindsight, I never really thought about it until.....
The first incident was when the twins were barely 1 year old. Both of them would cry at night without any reason at all. Their nappies were dry, they were not hungry. This continued for several nights until my husband spoke out loud and said to leave the twins alone since it was sleeping time and to play with them only when they were awake. After that, the crying incidents stopped and has not resumed. Weird right?
The second incident was with my eldest. I think he was around 1 year old then. He woke up in the middle of the night, looked at the corner of our room, smiled and waved. That really spooked me out. I told my husband about it the next day. Although it scared me, I casually asked my eldest about it the next day. I asked me who he smiled at and waved to. He does not remember a thing.
The third incident happened last year, with my youngest. I remember that week very clearly. It was my friend's birthday. We celebrated it at the cemetery and we brought the kids along. I distinctly remember showing the kids the picture of Milyn and explained to them that she's now in heaven. That weekend, we had lunch at Savory Chicken at SM. While we were eating, my youngest suddenly had the urge to go the CR. So we went inside the CR, and I closed the door. When I looked at my youngest, he was waving at and smiling, while looking at the door. I asked me who he was waving to and he replied, "Tita Milyn, Ma." That gave me goosebumps. Whenever I remember that incident, I would still have goosebumps.
I do not see these incidents, however, as something negative. I would like to think and I believe, that my deceased friends and my deceased relatives are looking after my kids. It is such a wonderful feeling knowing that even in death, they are still there for me and for my children.
What about you, any spooky incidents?
