Maori Hands

I have become to realize I talk as much about our friend, Xavier, in this blog as I talk about my mother. That's probably because he is an amazing, special and thoughtful kind of friend. He continues to touch the heart's of me and my family. He made the above for Mom and attached the message below.

Xav will be home in a few weeks, after a VERY long time. I, for one, cannot wait to see him, hear his stories and thank him in person for his support. We have really missed you Xavier and we thank you for always reaching out!!!

kia ora Kelli,

I've been to the northest point of NZ. This is a very spiritual place for Maoris. The souls of the dead people come here in Bay of Spirits to gather before flying back where they belong (islands of Polynesia between Tahiti and Hawai) leaving New Zealand from a point a few miles away, Cape Reinga.There were heaps of little pink snail shells on the beach, we just had a very nice walk on a bluff above and I drew this hand for your Mum and sent some energy to her from there.I wish her full recovery in 2010 so she can enjoy life 200%... and maybe a French grandchild :-)Wishing you and lou Pape all the best, snow, ice and good wine for 2010.Hugs. See you soon,Xav
