Ladybugs in sighting......

Last night we went to eat Taco Bueno and as we were leaving I had to go to bathroom, as i was washing my hands in the bathroom I saw a ladybug on the paper towel dispenser. I decided to get it and take it outside. The whole irony behind this is that the night before our wedding sitting in the suite with my 3bridesmaids, Lindsay found a ladybug on the highest floor in the Westin hotel. We thought it was so cool at the time, but I never looked up the meaning of ladybugs. Well again the day before our son is being born I run into another ladybug. HERE are other animal love symbols. Link to the main website. The other symbol I relate to is dragonflies, which I have one tattooed in between my shoulder blades on my back.

Love symbol meanings come in many forms. Many times certain animals come into our lives with a message of love. These animals serve as symbols that may indicate messages such as:


A new love interest is on the way
New love in the form of a pregnancy or new born is right around the corner
Closer attention to loved ones is required at this time
It's time to persue your passion and do more of what you love
Self-love is vital - are you loving yourself enough?


The other meanings i found were related to spirituality and religious. Some websites say that when the farmers were having their crops eaten by insects they prayed to the virgin mary and soon after ladybugs appeared eating the other types of insects. Therefore they called the ladybug, beetle of the lady referring to the virgin mary.

So of course last night I called Lindsay and Jennifer to tell them about my ladybug sighting! Here is the pic from the night before my wedding where Lindsay is holding the ladybug!

  1. How awesome!
    And so ironic, too!
    I saw a HUGE ladybug the other day (I'm talking the size of a june bug, that's what I thought it was at first).
    It flew in my sisters house and landed on my arm in the kitchen.
    I think it's about self-love for me though.
    After you have a baby you are so enamored with this little being you tend to forget about yourself for awhile.
    So I think it's about me coming to the realization that I need to love myself and be happy with me (ie, getting healthy).

    Anyway, good luck today! I can't wait to see Dreycin!!!
    Praying for you guys!
