Pam Sears Validation Story with Iris Elizabeth
My girl Iris is absolutely coming through to the mediums. I apologize if she is stealing the spotlight a little bit, but honestly, that was part of her personality! She was the youngest in our large extended family and was always the center of attention.
Pam mentioned the number 7, which immediately stood out because Iris’s birthday is July 24th. Apples were also brought up, which felt meaningful because apples are such a namesake of our small town — we have an Apple Harvest Festival downtown every year.
“Grandma Patty” or “Nana” was mentioned as well. Pam also brought up a patchwork quilt and the color purple. My aunt made Iris a quilt from her favorite T-shirts, and purple was absolutely her favorite color. The purple bike mentioned was another validation — we still have it.
The garden and the color yellow were also referenced. Right now, I have a volunteer calendula bush blooming in the garden with hundreds of beautiful yellow flowers all spring long.
A train was mentioned too. That could connect to our local train museum, which is only a few blocks from our home, or possibly to the recent train trip her sister took with Grandma and her auntie.
Pam asked if Iris liked sweets — absolutely yes. Her dad used to bring her a treat almost every evening when we got home.
Pam described her as very animated, and that could not be more accurate. Iris was full of energy, more than most children, truly a beam of light in our family.
We miss her physical presence enormously, but she is with us every single day, and this reading felt like proof of that.
Thank you so much, Pam.
