I lost my Dad in 2018.
It was 5 years after losing my younger brother to cancer and it was the most difficult part of my life.
I was blessed to have so many amazing memories with my Dad but now as the father of 3 young children, I mourned that my kids wouldn't have my Dad in their lives.
I wasn't looking for a sign but I found one.
The Red Cardinal was my Dad's favorite bird. He used to see them after his Father passed away and it always gave him comfort, often during the times that he needed it the most.
I drove home from the hospital and pulled into my house - there, sitting on the edge of the driveway was a Red Cardinal. In the 8 years that I'd lived in that house, I had never seen a Cardinal but there is was - a perfectly timed sign from Dad letting me know that he was okay.
