Little doodle of my mom’s stuffed owl. She slept with this owl, and when she died I started sleeping with it every night and haven’t stopped. 💜🦉 by @caso55

🫦 bad things always.

Okay friends, Halloween is a couple weeks away and I have no idea what my costume should be. I’ve been a vampire, witch, a broken porcelain doll twice, Ms Frizzle from Magic School Bus, flower child, Wayne from Wayne’s world with my dear friend @leora86

The Twisted Grove: a whimsical localized cluster of gnarled and spiraling redwoods inside of the forest of Nisene Marks. What I love about these trees, particularly, is that normal redwoods grow straight and tall, these trees in the twisted grove, bend, twist and spiral up the forming a canopy, giving the area a surreal Dr. Seuss like appearance. 🌀🌲😍#twistedtrees #nisenemarksstatepark #treelove #natureismychurch taken in The Forest of Nisene Marks State Park by @caso55

ALL OF THE PHOTOS ARE FROM TONIGHT ON ONE LONG WALK AROUND MY NEIGHBORHOOD

I asked my mom for signs before this evening walk. Angel numbers, owls, feathers specifically. After asking, I started my walk.

I paid attention differently when I felt that unstoppable pull to stop and look I did and every time there was something waiting for me.

Two owls 🦉 that were easy to see a feather, repeating numbers. And then after I thought “what if I see Mom’s initials on a license plate” there they were. Then two license plates that said Mom 🥹

Even a little gnome, because my mom loved gnomes.

But the strangest and most beautiful part wasn’t what I found. It was how I found it.

I felt almost outside of myself like I wasn’t entirely choosing where to walk, a gentle pull down one road, a turn I suddenly felt I needed to take, circling the block again for no obvious reason.

It felt like my mom was guiding me.
Not with her voice, not with a hand just a little nudges, this way, look here, keep going.

I acknowledged that I wasn’t walking alone and thanked my amazingly beautiful Mom for our walk together 💜 #parentloss #parentdeath #deceasedmom #signs #synchronicity @lauralynnejackson @tylerhenrymedium taken in Santa Cruz, California by @caso55

Oh mama, I carry on your laugh proudly. I remember the first time I heard your laugh come out of me. It’s probably in my late 20s and I thought, “ oh my God, I’m turning into my mom” Now when I hear it, I think oh my God, how lucky am I to be my mom”

That’s my sister laughing with my mom and me in the background saying “what the hell is so funny?” 😂 by @caso55

Mom-
I need to find you again.
I mean…I see the signs and I thank you.
A little nod, a tap on the shoulder, a whisper letting me know you are never too far.
The purple owl was impressive.

I know you hear me.
Every night your words make their way out into the room. At times slowly dragged through sobs and broken breaths as I look at your picture on the wall.

I try to say things I still need to tell you.
And then your voice comes back to me.
Your words entering my mind so effortlessly as if you are standing right beside me — without pause, without hesitation, your tone exactly as it always was.

Death has taken your body
but somehow it never took your voice.
It echoes in me.
Sometimes when I speak, I hear you there.
A word, a rhythm, a familiar turn of phrase.
Your tone slipping through mine as if you never left it.
And maybe this is where I need to find you again.
Not outside of me.
Not somewhere I have to beg the universe to point me toward.
But here.
In the voice that became mine because it was yours first 💜

Love your daughter,
Casie
