A little backstory before I go in to the number 13 and it’s significance in my life. My Mom was my best friend, and when I say best friend that stopped at nothing. If we didn’t talk at least twice a day it was odd! She knew every detail and aspect of my life and still does (more on this in the blog post The Hummingbird Amongst) She passed away 2 years ago on June 13th, which was the hardest day of my life, and the hardest years of my life prior watching her hurt and suffer battling a horrible thing called cancer. She was so strong and fought so hard to stay in our world with us. 

So, my Mom was very into numbers and I picked up on this as well. License plates, addresses, phone numbers, there were some that would stand out and have a meaning. A collection of numbers adding up to a certain number. With that being said, 13 has for some reason been given a negative vibe, but for me that is the complete opposite and actually puts me at ease. Before my Mom passed away the number 5 kept coming up and had a significance, well after she mentioned that, we had 5 kittens, which were all born on the 13th, this is when 13 came to be what it is to me today. The first brand new vehicle I bought is a 2013, when I paid it off, I owed $13k on it. My Mom passed away on the 13th, the 1 month of her passing was on Friday the 13th. Our new house we just built has the number 13 in it, when I was pregnant I knew some aspect of his birth would have a 13, he was 7 pounds and 13 ounces. We put an offer on our house on January 13th, we put the deposit down on our puppy on the 13th. There are so many others, but those are just a few. 

Cheers to numbers, especially the number 13.
