Hi Red,

 

My sister and brother in law moved in with me when she was pregnant with her daughter. About a month after she had her baby I saw my sister take a basket of dirty clothes to the laundry room as I watched T.V. from the living room. Out of the corner of my eyes I saw a shadow of a person about my sister's size move from my sister's room to the hallway and stand there just out of sight around the corner as if listening and making sure no one was around. After a few seconds the shadow cast from whatever retreated back to my sister's room. I knew no one was supposed to be in the house besides me and my sister and I heard her still in the laundry room. I called and asked who she had over and she irritably told me no one. I told her what I saw and we both investigated. My sister's daughter was sound asleep and no one was in her room. I sat back down in the living room and asked my sister to step out of her room and stand just around the corner in the hall like she was listening in on me trying not to be observed. Her shadow matched the shadow perfectly. I said out loud several times like I always do when I feel a strange presence, "Evil is not welcomed in this house, evil be gone!" I felt a little better afterwards, as if the presence was gone, even though I never felt that the presence was evil to begin with. My sister moved in with me off and on during Jasmine's first few years and it was at my house that Jasmine first met her imaginary friend's who she claimed were afraid to come inside and lived in my bushes outside. I remember she said the name of one was Tess, but I don't remember the name of the second.

I've always felt strong presences looking after and out for Jasmine, and still do. My brother and his girlfriend got caught up with hard drugs and the law finally caught up with them and they both had to do six months in jail. I had to take care of their 18 month old baby boy for six months because no one else could supposedly find the time or would. My aunt Jackie helped me out and took him from me on the weekends to give me a break. I've never had to look after a baby by myself before and boy was it a lot of work. I used to have sleep problems, I had a hard time falling asleep, ussually only when I absolutely couldn't keep my eyes open anymore, which sometimes took several days at its worst. When I finally did sleep I would sleep long hours though unless something woke me up. Daniel was an early riser and an early sleeper despite my attempts to keep him up a little later so I could sleep a little. On my best days I would fall asleep around two or three in the morning and get up around  twelve. When I had Daniel I tried to get up by eight or nine and tried to fall asleep earlier so I could take care of Daniel's needs. It was a struggle I failed as I did in trying to get Daniel to sleep later by keeping him up later. I gave up and decided to child proof his room from any possible dangers, boy did that boy have knack for getting himself into trouble and could climb anything like monkey, and let him entertain himself until I could get a few hours a sleep occasionally. I'm a very light sleeper and anytime anything out of the ordinary occurs I would wake up and check to make sure things were alright and then would try and snatch another hours or few minutes rest. Well, I woke up after about the second day or so of giving this a try to the sounds of a woman giving baby talk to Daniel. I Saw through my open door across from Daniels open but gated door across the hall this short lady with long curly reddish hair like my moms kneeling down and playing with him. At first I thought it was my mom, but then I saw that it wasn't but was a shorter older stranger. I got mad and jumped out of bed and rushed over to the woman who had her back turned to me and demanded to know who she was and what she was doing in my house. She ignored me and continued playing with Daniel until i got really furious and threatened to call the law. Then she turned around and was very angry with me and said, I know what I am but what are you. Her eyes blazed with intensity and warning, I then knew that the older homleless appearing women was an entity of great power and that I was being found lacking and that I had better step up to the plate and start doing my duty better or there would be cosequences. I then woke up for real and got up to feed, change and play with Daniel. I got very little sleep and got next to nothing done on the book I was supposed to be finishing in the next few months until my brother's girlfriend got out of jail except for the weekends my Aunt gave me a break, she was a life saver, and instead concentrated on Daniel and took the best care of that poor guy as I could from then on out. Anyways, I guess Daniel likewise has a very powerful guardian spirit that decided to get my attention on a matter it found me lacking. Your experience reminds me of mine in a way. Do you think the figure you see might be a guardian spirit that is attempting to get you to take notice of something you may be missing?
