Following the death of her 21-year-old son, mom finds baby toys on his grave

When Leonard turned 18, his parents were eager to see him attend law school. They always imagined their son being a successful lawyer, running his own firm. But the moment Leonard told them his dream was to become a musician, their world crushed.

Both his parents, Kenneth and Lily, were convinced they knew what was best for their son and refused to support him in pursuing a career in music. This decision led to a heated argument after which Leonard left his parents’ home.

For three long years, they didn’t talk to each other. Lily and Kenneth tried reaching out but Leonard shut them out completely. They knew he was well because some family members he stayed in touch with provided them with updates on him every now and then. They hoped His parents hoped Leonard would contact them when he stopped being mad at them, but sadly, that day never came.

On a Sunday morning, which resembled like any other in the lives of Lily and Kenneth, they received the most devastating news. The police called them, telling them their son lost his life in a motorcycle accident.

After his sudden passing, Lily made a promise to visit his grave every day.

On the first day following the funeral, she noticed a teddy bear placed on the grave. She thought that someone put it there by mistake so she took it and replaced it with flowers.

The following day, there was another teddy bear.

She was confused and kept wondering who could be doing that.

On the third day, she noticed a young woman carrying a child at Leonard’s grave. Just as she was about to place yet another teddy bear on the grave, Lily called out to her.

The young woman looked both sad and scared. When Lily approached her, she started crying.

All this puzzled Lily even further. When she asked the woman what she was doing there she explained that she was Leonard’s girlfriend and that the child was his.

Lily was stunned. She just froze and was unable to say a word. How was this even possible. She lost her beloved son and now she had a grandson.

The woman, who introduced herself as Carrie, spoke of Leonard; how they met while he was working at a bar in order to be able to fund his music career, how they fell madly in love, and how they welcomed a baby together. Leonard was planning to make amends with his parents,he was waiting for the right time, but sadly, that right time never came.

Lily invited Carrie home. She introduced her to her husband. The three had a long conversation and Carrie agreed Lily and Kenneth to be part of her child’s life.
