blue butterflies

This blog is dedicated to my sister Shelley, she passed away on February 17, 2012. She loved butterflies, she loved life. I always told her she reminded me of Glenda, the Good Witch in the Wizard of Oz. She had a great life, and I always believed she lived in a bubble, or maybe floated around in a bubble. I thought her life was close to perfect. She had a great husband, whom didn't abuse her, she worked for herself, so she didn't have to deal with the politics of a corporate job and tutored and guided many, many children.

One year we visited the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls, Ontario. She was in her perfect world. A blue butterfly came and landed on her shoulder...she got so excited, wanting me to take a picture. One, that I unfortunately can't find to this day. She said this is what heaven must be like. I really hope your heaven is filled with blue butterflies all around you!
