Years ago when my sweet hamster died, I was sitting on the front porch grieving for her.
Suddenly 2 black capped chickadees appeared and sat very still on the porch railing.
This was a sign that my deceased grandmother was now caring for my darling baby girl and that I should not grieve for her any longer. She was safe and happy with her great grandma.
This is the only time in my life when 2 birds have appeared in front of me like this.
Ever since then chickadees are a sign of spirituality to me.
I miss my grandma and my little girl but I know that they are waiting for me to join them someday.
