Call 616 : MY BALLS

Hello Son, 

Something cute to tell you.

About little R.

Sweet cutie R.

 

So yesterday morning, when little R arrived in school, he had excitedly ran to Mom and showed Mom 2 little balls in his little hands.

 

His voice was full of excitement as he exclaimed, "See Chee-Cher (teacher) Lynn, see my balls!!"

 

And he went on to say this and that ... and that and this.

 

As entertaining as always.

 

Cute small little balls. A little big bigger than ping pong balls.

 

One white and one pink, with a little cartoon image on each ball.

 

Fast forward ...

 

The day passed in school very quickly.

Soon it was nap time.

Nap time passed.

Just before 5 pm, Mom heard a familiar "Hi Chee-Cher Lynn."

Ryan had woken up.

After a quick squeeze, Mom said, "Let's go wee-wee."

At the urinal, Mom helped him remove his shorts, and he went to the big-boy's urinal (standing on a stool). 

 

As he was peeing, he said, "Chee-Cher Lynn, I really love my balls."

Mom had to hide a laugh.

It was too cute.

Your mother replied, "You do?"

Little R repeated, "Yes, I really love my balls."

Awwww. How cute is that.

So anyway, in the car that evening, Mom mentioned to Dad about the ball incident, and Dad had a big smile.

Mom said, "I think Daniel must have whispered to him (R), to make him say that. It's just like his (Daniel) kind of humor."

So that was yesterday (Monday 25).

This morning, about 7am, Aunty D (R's mummy) sent Mom a text to tell Mom which hotel the family would be going for a staycation during the Raya break.

In reply, Mom told Aunty D about what R said about his balls.

Aunty D sent the hysterical laughing emoji.

In the car on the way to school, Mom asked Dad, "Is there anything about a ball that is connected to Daniel?"

 

Did he have any special ball ... and inciDAN about Daniel and a ball?

 

If there was, then yesterday's ball inciDAN was a zap inciDAN.

 

Mom couldn't think of any ball-related inciDAN at all that was connected to you.

 

Bionicles or guitar or a pet fish ... yes.

 

But a ball???

 

Nothing specific like that.

 

Grimace.

 

So anyway, the day started in school ...

 

Mom was busy as usual.

 

It wasn't until mid-day when something interesting happened in class.

 

We were having mathematics.

 

Problem - solving.

 

The children had gone through the first page for the day. 

 

We were now on the second page.

 

Mom couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the problem question.

 

Omg. 

 

Seriously???

 

 

Question at the top :

 

Daniel has 7 balloons, 4 balloons fly away  ...

 

Omg.

Daniel ... ball.

4 fly away.

(I AM NUMBER 4) (Movie) 

 

(Daniel Daniel ... at the beach scene ... beginning of the movie)

ZAP ZAP ZAP!!

It was surely you whispering to R - 

 

it was just your way to bring a smile to us.

In the evening, Mom was as usual at the table preparing some books for the next day, when the familiar voice of R's "Hi, Chee-cher Lynn" greeted her.

R approached Mom. 

 

He had just woken up from his nap. 

After giving him a little squeeze, and asking him if he had a good sleep, Mom went back to her books. Your mother was preparing some books for the next day (27/4).

Soon she came to this book, and this page.

 

 

After the balloon page this afternoon in class, Mom's just sensitive to this word.

She took a photo.

She wasn't sure for what.

Was she trying too hard?

Her son was near, she knows.

He would always find little ways to make her feel his presence.

It wasn't until Mom overheard R saying to his friends, "Do you know the angel song?"

And again, R asked, "Angelo, do you know the angel song?"

(Angelo - a boy in school)

Mom was in the school, about 10 walking steps from the children outside. 

 

The kids were having their tea time.

Angel song?

Angel???

Your would have seen your mother checked her handphone for the time.

 

It was : 1502 pm

Decode : 44

Smile. 

 

This would be like the first time Mom has ever heard R say this "angel" word.

He has never said this word.

For some reason, Mom checked the time that photo (of the balloon) was taken.

She could only gasp when she saw 15.02pm.

Omg. What are the chances?

Innocent little children can always hear the whispers of angels.

We all know that.

Don't we?

Wink.

Plus, her son's ZAPs always comes in twos.

 

Thanks, Son.

For always letting us know that you are near.

ZAP ZAP ZAP.

Need to go to bed now.

Nite nite.

xoxo 

Mom

CALL 615 : FREE SERVICE

Hello Son, 

So this morning, after posting Call 614, Dad and Mom went for mass.

We arrived at SFX about half an hour before mass time at 11:30am.

It was still considered early.

We followed the lane to the designated car parks.

When we got there, there were quite a few empty car park bays that Dad could have just drove in to. However, one of the guards motioned to Dad to park at this grassy spot ... not even a proper bay. We were early, there were proper bays for us to park the car, why on earth would that silly guard ask Dad to park at that grass-area?

Anyway, Dad parked as he was told.

When Mom got out of the car, she saw the car beside to us. 

 

Our car was parked in an L shape to this car, which was in a proper bay.

Ohh.

Mom spotted the 21 immediately. (84)

Ah, no wonder.

Hi Son, her heart greeted happily.

So anyway, we attended mass.

After mass, we were supposed to pick up Grandma and her friend, Aunty L, and drive them up to Genting. They were gonna spend 2 days in Genting.

We picked up Grandma from Tiara condo first.

Then we headed to Hartamas to fetch Aunty L.

It was about 1:10 pm when Aunty L hopped into the car.

 

After the initial greetings and how are yous, Aunty L happened to mention that her grandson is a cardiologist in Singapore. Aunty L also shared that the grandson's wife would like to pursue surgery, and that the girl's parents are also doctors. As Aunty L was talking, Mom suddenly heard your name mentioned.

 

Daniel something something ...

 

You would have seen your mother's reaction. 

 

Haha.

 

Mom maintained her composure and asked as casually as she could, 

 

"Your grandson's name is Daniel?"

 

Aunty L said yes.

 

Mom's eyes shot to the clock on the dashboard.

 

It showed 13:22.

 

That's a clear 21  23.  Or 8.

 

The day you left (21) and your birth year (1994) (23)

 

Or 8 (44).

 

No matter how you look at it, they are all your mother's angel numbers. 

 

A big smile came over Mom's face. 

 

You must have seen that from where you are.

 

It was like suddenly the day got so much brighter, and the sky blue-r just because ...

 

Mom heard your name mentioned. 

 

Daniel.

 

You are definitely near.

 

Hmmm. 

 

This brings Mom to the day before (yesterday) ...  

When we came back from the grocers yesterday ... remember Mom mentioned that the song "You say it best when you say nothing at all" came on the radio ... "

Well, Dad dropped Mom at the lobby of our block. Our neighbour and her friend were at the lobby at the time. So the neighbour introduced her friend to mom, and mentioned that the friend used to teach the neighbour's autistic son. One info led to another, and soon Mom overheard the friend mentioned Daniel ...

Mom asked, "What's your son's name again?" in case she didn't hear it right.

The friend replied, "Daniel."

Mom just mentally hugged herself. You would have seen that. Seriously, what are the chances of hearing the song You say it best when you say nothing at all in the car, and then hear your name Daniel, a few minutes later at the lobby?

No chance.

ZAP ZAP ZAP.

In fact mom forgot to mention that in her call 613, but looks like she received a reminder today when Aunty L talked about her grandson. Is it not weird that your mother had to hear your name yesterday and today? Of all the one billion names there are in the world, this name Daniel had to be uttered to your mother the day before and again, today?

Angel chance.

ZAP ZAP ZAP.

Her son is always reminding her that he is near.

Thank you, Daniel.

Mom really appreciates that. 

 

You always have a way to let your mother know that you are near. 

 

Thank God for that.

Anyways, moving on ... we dropped by at the foot of Genting to have our lunch. 

 

During this time, Justine texted to say that, there is something wrong with her brakes / brake lights. Your sister said that she will get a lift from a colleague to the hospital, and will not be driving the car when it's not in tip-top condition.

Mom whispered to Dad, "I asked Daniel to watch over Justine. He must have alerted her about the brakes."

Dad nodded.

Thanks Son.

So anyways, Grandma brought Dad and Mom to the casino. It was quite packed. So your parents left Grandma and Aunty L at the casino. Dad and Mom went to sit down for a bit at Baskin Robbins. It was the only place which was empty. Haha. We were at Starbucks first but the place was too congested.

Within a few minutes, Grandma texted that she made 1k and asked Mom to go to the casino. Mom said no, and asked Grandma to carry on.

5 minutes later, Grandma texted again to say she made another 1k. Wow. Are you whispering the numbers in your Grandma's ear, Son?

So anyway, Dad and Mom decided to drive back to KL. Grandma and Aunty L will be staying in Genting for 2 nights. On the way back, Justine sent us a text to inform : 

"My car fixed d. Today is off day (holiday). 

He (the mechanic) came to the hospital to fix it. 

And he didn't charge."

Oh Wow.

How nice of the the guy?

And he didn't charge???

As in, the service was FREE??

Photo of you in your pink FREE t.shirt was taken in Lourdes.

Mom grinned as she said to Dad, "Who could have arranged for a free service for Justine?"

There's only one person who could have done that.

Chuckle.

We don't know how you do it, Son, but thank you for the free service and watching over Justine.

Over to you, Daniel.

Stay close and keep the zaps coming as always.

xoxo

Mom

 

 

Here are the condolence flowers that we ordered yesterday.

 

We asked for white gerberas.

 

The blue ones were just added in

without our knowledge. 

 

Hmmm. 

 

Mama Mary's blue colour. 

 

Nice touch, don't you think?

CALL 613 : 124 SIGN

Hello Son,

 

Mom is so excited to be at her desk computer, making this call to you.

After the few several zaps that you sent from heaven, Mom just have to make time to call you to let you know that your mother received all those zaps and ...

 

Message received. 

 

 

So anyways, Good Friday was on the 15th.

The day before Good Friday, on Thursday ...

 

It was early in the morning, when Mom was in the kitchen, about to prepare food for school.

She felt something dropped on to the floor.

She looked down, and saw her cross.

 

It had come off from her chain.

Mom has been wearing this cross for 3 years now. Aunty C had bought some souvenirs from Lourdes  when she was visiting a few years back (2019). Your mother has been wearing this cross since and has never taken it out, nor has it ever come off from her chain.

A day before Good Friday, her cross falls out.

Knowingly, Mom acknowledged that moment, as she picked up her cross. 

 

Her son was clearly reminding her that (tomorrow), the next day, was Good Friday.

A day to remember that Jesus died for us, and because of His resurrection, you are alive and well today.

It's Good Friday tomorrow, Ma.

Mom heard you,

Thursday went by, and Friday came.

On Good Friday night, Dad and Mom attended the 9:30pm mass at SFX.

We left the house at about 9pm, and arrived some 25 mins later.

It normally takes only 10 mins to to get to church from our home.

So anyway, Dad and Mom were at the entrance of the church, trying to see where to sit. The church looked very filled up from left to right, front (as far as we could see) to back.

A hospitality minister approached us and signaled for us to follow her.

Would you believe it but she brought us right up to the front of the church, and have your parents seated on the 2nd row from the altar. 

 

Pause.

 

Smile.

 

You must have seen your father and mother exchanging glances and smiling widely.

 

Oh, that was definitely your doing, Daniel.

Mom knows.

Thanks, Son. That was a very good pew you gave Dad and Mom.

 

On Saturday, your parents were at the grocer. 

Whilst walking around, would you believe it but Mom's cross came off her chain and dropped off.

The second time.

It's a zap from her son, reminding Mom about Easter.

 

The zaps from you, Daniel, always come is twos.

 

Easter Sunday tomorrow, Ma.

 

Mom hears you.

 

To cut a long story short, Dad and Mom went on a bike trip to Genting Highlands for Easter.

 

We only rode up to the premium outlets.

 

Mom and Dad strolled around for a bit before going to Starbucks.

It started to rain then, and so we were at Starbucks for about 2 hours.

When the rain stopped, Dad said we should go.

We walked to the bike.

Mom immediately noticed a green bike parked beside Dad's.

 

 

Dad said, "You were pointing to this model just now."

There was a bike of the same model at the traffic lights on the way up, and Mom had pointed at it. 

 

It looked cute, your mother thought.

Dad continued, "Son sent this bike here so you can see better."

 

Chuckle.

 

Mom looked at the bike number : 6631

Why, that's a 124.

24 / 21 : your birthdate and transitioning date. 

There can be no more death word, remember. 

 

We are children of the resurrection.

 

Then, Mom looked over to the orange bike beside the green one.

Mom read the registration number loudly : 2554

Pause as she made a quick discovery.

Omg. 

 

Isn't that also 124?

 

Mom exclaimed, "Orange and green ... 124 ..."

 

What are the chances?

 

We had a very memorable orange and green party when your sister, Justine, and you were younger. 

 

You could have been around 7 or 8 years old. 

Everyone was dressed in green and orange, and we had a contest where the one with the most green and orange will win a prize. Mom will always remember that event because Uncle K painted his face orange and green, apart from wearing those two colours. Uncle K took his own life a few years later.

So yeah, orange and green certainly left an impression on your mother alright.

 

"When Son wants to zap us, he always sends 2," Mom explained.

 

Dad was smiling.

 

ZAP ZAP ZAP.

 

Was that a HAPPY EASTER ZAP, Daniel?

 

You were certainly with us. :D

 

 

That evening, at home, Mom was watching Anne with an E.

 

Would you believe it but the episode that was on, had Anne saying 124.

Mom couldn't believe her ears, and had to rewind it back a bit to hear it again.

OMG.

Seriously, what are the chances?

No chance.

Angel chance.

Her son is zapping her, and reminding her he's near.

As always.

Fast forward to Saturday 23 (today) ...

Dad and Mom were in the car, when Dad received a text.

Mr Koh from Viva Life Science had passed on.

May his soul rest in peace.

 

Mom looked at the message (Dad was driving). 

 

"Wake service : 24-4-2022"

 

Immediately your mother read that as  4444.

 

Her angel numbers.

 

Her son is near.

 

Always reminding her.

 

Thank you, Son.

 

Mom told Dad that we have to send flowers as we will not be in KL on Sunday.

 

We drove back to Taman Desa, and ordered a nice bouquet of white gerberas to be delivered to the family of Mr Koh. 

On the way home, You say it best when you say nothing at all ... came on the radio.

Mom immediately glanced at the time. It was 15.20 pm ... 

Mom pointed the time out to Dad and exclaimed loudly: one five two

Is that not  44?

 

Mom said, "Right after ordering flowers for condolences, we hear this song... at his angel time. You say it best when you say nothing at all."

Seriously, what are the chances?

ZAP ZAP ZAP!!!

Son is near. 

He is reminding us that he is near.

At home, Mom was relaxing in front of the telly.

Mom was watching Tyler Henry on Netflix.

It must have been about 3 hours or so into the show, yup, after the mother whose 15 year old son drowned during a school trip ... and a few more stories ... before this appeared before your mother's eyes.

Mom sat right up, when she saw the above:

May 21,2001 - December 4, 2018

21 21 21 444

Omgosh.

Those were the 124 that your mother saw (3x) during Easter time.

After that, there was a big sign that came on for your mother which Mom has been asking you to give for the past year or so. Mom literally jumped up from her seat. Omg Son, that was wonderful. Mom is not able to put it down here on your call blog because it involves a third party. However, once it is revealed, Mom will call and tell you about it. 

Omg. 

 

It's amazing how you communicate with Mom.

Message clearly received.

Over to you, Son.

Just remember, we love you so very much.

Watch over your sister, and be good up there.

Stay close.

xoxo

Mom
