My daughter saw me crying in my room and asked me, "Mommy why are you crying?" 

 "I miss daddy honey." I smiled sadly looking at her through teary eyes. But what shocked me most is what my son told me next, "Daddy is holding your hand mommy."

 My husband died a month before the twins were born and I never showed them a picture of him. This wasn't the only time they mentioned about my dead husband.

I heard my children talking to someone in their room. I went to their door and saw their alphabet blocks being juggled mid-air and I thought nothing of it since my best friend is a ghost and I asked them, "Are you two messing with Aunt Alice again?" 

My daughter smiled and said, "Nope! We are playing with daddy!" I asked them to leave the room and decided to try, just to see if he was really there. "Is it really you my love?" 

He appeared before me and said with his common boyish grin, "I missed you shortie." I started crying and my kids ran in to hug me and I said that all four of us should play together though both them and my ghost husband. 

 Even if someone is dead they always find their way back to you. Even if it's not how you expected.
