As my siblings and I were carrying our mom’s things to the U-Haul for her move to Texas, a big, beautiful buck walked up to her window and looked right at her as if to give her one last gift from this magical place.
Deer are everywhere, but this doesn’t usually happen at my mom’s place because right beyond her windows is a steep drop-off to the ocean.
What a perfect final goodbye from nature. I will miss you immensely, Mom.
(She and my brother are now somewhere between Yreka and Sacramento, headed for Dallas…)

Thank you so much, Dawn!!
Really sweet that it happened, but bonus points for capturing the moment! Your mom gives the best hugs and always Joyful. It was a privilege to know and love her.
Thank you Theresa!! It was so funny – the deer walked up and my brother and sister and I were standing there like statues, trying not to move so my brother could slowwwwly get his phone ready for a photo. Thank you so much for your kind words!
She was a blessing to know and visit prayers for each of you
