Meninas visitam o túmulo do pai para ‘mostrar’ seus novos vestidos como ele pediu, veja 2 caixas com seus nomes – História do dia

Para realizar o último desejo do pai, duas meninas visitam seu túmulo no aniversário dele para mostrar suas roupas adoráveis. Perto da lápide, elas encontram duas caixas lindamente embrulhadas com seus nomes e não têm ideia do que as espera.

Isla, 6, e Madison, 8, sentiam falta do papai, Brian. Depois que ele foi para seu lar celestial, elas não roubaram biscoitos e sorvetes da cozinha à noite, não uniram forças para incomodar a mãe, nem foram às compras. Porque sem o papai Brian, essas coisas não eram divertidas.

“Você está mimando essas meninas, Brian!” A esposa de Brian, Linda, costumava repreendê-lo. “Por que vocês se juntam contra mim? Eu sei que vocês roubam da despensa para seus anjinhos!”

“Bem, eu vou mimá-las pelo resto da minha vida!” Brian diria com um largo sorriso. “Elas sempre virão em primeiro lugar para mim enquanto eu viver! Sinto muito, querida, mas agora você tem competição. Mas você sabe, eu adoro todas as minhas garotas — incluindo você”, e a abraçaria.

Era assim que Brian era. Ele sempre equilibrava uma situação. Ele era o homem de família perfeito. Mas depois que ele faleceu, algo mudou. Isla e Madison ficaram muito quietas, e Linda, bem, ela estava lutando para aceitar a morte dele também.

Afinal, suas últimas lembranças de Brian não tinham sido nada além de terríveis. Ele morreu diante de seus olhos, e ela não pôde ajudá-lo. Câncer em estágio quatro, os médicos disseram a Linda. Eles começaram o tratamento da maneira certa e fizeram o melhor por Brian, mas perderam a batalha, e a terrível doença venceu.

A morte não pode quebrar os laços construídos com amor.

A saúde de Brian continuou piorando, e uma manhã ele não acordou. Isla e Madison dormiram ao lado dele na cama do hospital na noite anterior. Ele pediu a Linda para deixar as meninas com ele naquela noite. Provavelmente ele sentiu que aquela era sua última noite com suas filhas pequenas.

“Hora da morte: 4 da manhã de terça-feira…” os médicos declararam naquela manhã depois que Linda ligou, preocupada porque Brian não estava atendendo o celular. Os médicos lhe deram um olhar de desculpas antes de cobrirem seu rosto antes sorridente com um lençol branco do hospital. Brian tinha ido embora. Ele não voltaria, e Linda estava arrasada.

Após a morte de Brian, Linda não conseguiu se recompor, não importa o quanto tentasse. Suas meninas tinham sido mais fortes do que ela. Elas pelo menos tinham comparecido ao funeral. Linda não suportava vê-lo enterrado sob a Terra.

“No meu aniversário, quero que minhas meninas estejam o mais bonitas possível, e estou curioso para ver o que elas vão vestir. Vocês prometem vir até o papai e me mostrar suas lindas roupas, meninas? Vejam, é possível que o papai não esteja com vocês naquele dia, mas vocês têm que me prometer que estarão no seu melhor”, foi a última coisa que Brian disse. Era seu último desejo que suas meninas o visitassem em seu aniversário.

Então, no dia anterior, as meninas pediram para Linda levá-las para fazer compras.

“Mamãe”, disse a pequena Isla. “Papai amou meu vestido vermelho. Ele me deu um de aniversário. Eu quero um vestido vermelho.”

“Você pode escolher para mim, mãe”, Madison ofereceu. “Eu quero que seja a cor favorita do papai.”

“Eu – eu acho que não tenho tempo, meninas,” Linda tentou evitar o assunto. Ela ainda estava sofrendo pela perda de Brian. Ela não estava pronta para nada parecido com encerramento.

“Mas precisamos visitar o papai!” Isla disse. “Ele me pediu para usar algo bonito no aniversário dele. Ele pediu para Madison também.”

Os olhos de Linda se encheram de lágrimas. Ela estava tão consumida pela tristeza que tinha esquecido o aniversário de Brian.

“O que ele te perguntou?” Linda perguntou, com os olhos cheios de lágrimas.

“Papai queria nos ver em vestidos bonitos no aniversário dele. Precisamos visitá-lo, mamãe”, disse Isla. “Depressa! Precisamos ir às compras!”

“Quando ele perguntou isso?” perguntou Linda. “Eu – eu não sabia…” Ela não tinha ideia do último desejo de Brian.

“Na noite anterior à sua morte, mãe”, revelou Madison. “Ele segurou nossas mãos e disse que queria nos ver em roupas bonitas no aniversário dele. Mãe, acho que deveríamos fazer isso por ele. Sei que você está chateada, mas, por favor?” Ela cobriu os ouvidos de Linda com as mãos. “Sei que você está com saudades do pai, mas precisamos fazer isso pela Isla. Ela sente muita falta do papai.”

Madison sempre foi uma criança brilhante. Ela entendia coisas que crianças da idade dela achariam difícil de compreender. E ela finalmente convenceu Linda a ir às compras.

“Tudo bem então”, disse Linda. “Vamos dar a vocês, meninas, as roupas mais bonitas, para que o papai saiba o que está perdendo por não estar conosco! Ele vai se arrepender de nos deixar assim!” Linda disse, desatando a chorar e suas meninas a abraçaram para confortá-la.

“Papai não quer ver você triste, mãe. Eu sei…” Madison sussurrou, dando um tapinha nas costas da mãe.

No dia seguinte, no aniversário de Brian, as meninas vestiram suas roupas novas e deram as mãos juntas enquanto caminhavam até o túmulo de Brian. Linda estava andando atrás delas.

Quando chegaram em frente ao túmulo de Brian, as meninas notaram duas caixas lindamente embrulhadas com seus nomes e um pequeno adesivo em cima dizendo que era de Brian.

“Mamãe!” Isla virou-se para Linda e disse: “Olha, o papai nos mandou presentes! Ele é bobo! Ele não sabe que devemos dar presentes a ele no aniversário dele”, e riu.

Madison lançou um olhar para Linda que dizia que ela sabia que Brian não poderia ter enviado aquilo para eles. Pessoas mortas não mandam presentes.

“Bem, talvez ele estivesse com saudades das filhas. Podem abrir a caixa, meninas”, disse Linda com um sorriso encorajador.

Enquanto as duas garotas desembrulhavam as caixas, Linda teve que esconder suas lágrimas. Isla estava sorrindo de alegria enquanto Madison chorava pela primeira vez desde a morte de Brian.

Havia um lindo par de Mary Janes e uma carta de Brian em cada caixa.

“Sapatos!”, gorjeou Isla. “Eles são tão lindos, mamãe! Minha cor favorita…rosa!”

A carta dizia:

“Minhas meninas mais lindas,

Alguns anjos aqui no céu estão surpresos ao ver como as meninas podem ser tão bonitas! Eles dizem que vocês são as meninas mais bonitas que Deus já criou. Papai pode ver o quão bonitas vocês ficam em suas roupas. Mas eu queria fazer minhas meninas parecerem ainda mais bonitas, então comprei esses sapatos para vocês. Espero que gostem.

Veja, o papai não está por perto, mas ele está sempre lá no seu coração. Eu sei que minhas meninas não comem mais biscoitos e sorvetes. Não conte para a mamãe, mas eu sei que ela reabasteceu a despensa com caixas enormes de biscoitos. Eu a vi fazendo isso. Da próxima vez que você me visitar, eu quero ouvir histórias sobre como você os roubou com sucesso pelas costas da mamãe. Só porque o papai não está lá não significa que não vamos incomodar a mamãe! Eu quero que vocês, meninas, sejam felizes e sorriam todos os dias. Vocês não precisam ser sempre boas. Tenho certeza de que nem a mamãe gosta disso.

E obrigada por me visitarem e me desejarem um feliz aniversário, meninas. Papai ama vocês e sente saudades.

Enviando muito amor para minhas lindas meninas,

“Brian.”

“Umm… isso é muita coisa para eu ler!” Isla reclamou. “Madison, o que o papai escreveu?”

Madison abraçou Elsa com força. “Ele disse que está feliz onde está, Isla, e quer que sejamos felizes também. Ele sente nossa falta. Obrigada por tudo, mãe”, ela acrescentou, sabendo que as caixas eram dela. “Agradecemos por nos trazer aqui.”

Linda sorriu e sussurrou: “Eu amo vocês duas”, agradecendo às meninas por ajudá-la a superar a dor e lhe dar forças para visitar Brian.

O que podemos aprender com essa história?

  • A morte não pode quebrar os laços construídos com amor. Brian está longe de sua família nos céus, mas ele está sempre presente dentro de seus corações.
  • As mães sempre colocam os filhos em primeiro lugar. Embora Linda ainda não estivesse pronta para visitar Brian, ela reuniu coragem para fazê-lo depois de ver o quanto suas meninas queriam visitar o pai.

“If I’d married an American and lived in Hollywood, I’d probably be on my third husband by now.”

Following a promising career in show industry, Rachel Ward appeared to vanish from the public eye.

Rather than pursuing celebrity, she concentrated on her 39-year marriage to Bryan Brown and their expanding family.

She is devoted to her two grandkids, who she now has.

About the same time that Rachel Ward met Bryan Brown, she was listed as one of the ten most beautiful women in the world. She was a rising star who had been nominated for a Golden Globe and appeared on the cover of UK Vogue.

Richard Chamberlain, her co-star in “The Thorn Birds,” was enamored with the stunning actress. Speaking about their time together on set, he remarked that because of his stunning co-star, all the love scenes were a pleasure to perform. She was in love with someone else, though, even as he was falling for her.

At one point, Chamberlain disclosed that Ward was falling in love with Brown at the time, indicating that she was a romantic, but regrettably not for him. Despite this, Chamberlain claimed that Ward’s enthusiasm was infectious, primarily due to the fact that they portrayed a couple in love.

He went so far as to say that it was easy to accept that Ward was in love with him and no one else. “I assumed I was the one! It was amazing. God, he used to think, ‘She’s really into me.

According to Ward, there was a strong attraction between her and Brown. “His pecs were nice.” It is, after all, quite chemical, don’t you think? She talked about what made her fall in love at first, saying, “It’s pretty basic.” In all honesty, there was no other way to explain her feelings—she simply liked him.

Brown, meanwhile, immediately concluded that Ward was “not a bad sort.” He was attracted to her right away, but it took him a while to express his interest in her. For Ward, however, this was no big thing because, according to Brown, it was a challenge she was eager to take on until he eventually changed.

It was obvious once Ward made up his mind about him: the 35-year-old ladies’ man, who was, to be honest, just a man averse to commitment, was done playing games. It was now time for him to be married, if not to the stunning Rachel Ward.

Despite coming from a shattered home, Brown never thought he would get married, but in nine months, he and Ward were married. Before Ward entered his life, he used to assure his mother that he would never get married.

Ward and Brown were married under different circumstances, despite the fact that many people decide to get married after discovering they have everything they could possibly need and want in a spouse. Brown was filming a project with Paul McCartney in London at the time. When Ward arrived, they got into a heated dispute.

Brown said, “I just thought we may as well get married if we’re going to argue like that.” In Oxfordshire, the home of Ward’s boyhood, they were married that year. After a while, they made Sydney their home, raising Rose, Matilda, and James, their three children.

Selecting an Alternative Course
Ward was the star of numerous songs prior to “The Thorn Birds.” Although her 1983 mini-TV series with Chamberlain was well-received, she eventually gave up acting due to scathing criticism of her performance. Speaking on her personal experience, she acknowledged:

“I took being slaughtered very seriously. After that, I never really regained my confidence.

Ward’s career was impacted by “The Thorn Birds,” but in the end, it helped her find the love of her life. As they waited for a take one day, Brown instructed Ward to raise her hand. When he saw three lines in her hand during his palm reading, he concluded that she would give birth to three children. They had no idea that they would end up having three children together.

Ward kept acting, but not very often. She made the decision to put her family first and relocated to her husband’s home country of Australia.

In response to a question concerning advice on preserving marriage, Brown says that one should “say yes to your wife all the time, and if anything goes wrong, say ‘it’s my fault.’” Men would be happier if they knew that.

Together, the charming couple had three children who all follow in their footsteps: The most well-known roles for their 1987-born daughter Matilda are in the television series “Lessons from the Grave,” “How God Works,” and “Let’s Talk About.” Their daughter Rosie is well-known for “Black Mirror,” “Inside No. 9,” and “Gangs of London,” while their only son Joe is well-known for “Let’s Talk About” and “Rake.”

Brown acted in the family-friendly film “Palm Beach,” directed by Ward, with his daughter Matilda. The family completed the project collectively.

When Matilda, Ward and Brown’s daughter, gave birth to Zan Neathway Gooding, her first boy, in 2019, the couple became grandparents for the first time. Brown remained by her daughter’s side, eager to eventually hold his grandson in his arms.

The actor did not sure how to react to being referred to as “grandfather,” even if he was a devoted grandfather, since it seemed to reveal his age. But whether he liked it or not, he had to admit that he would always be referred to as “grandpa.”

At first, Brown was concerned about becoming a grandfather because a lot of people were assuming he would adore it. When his grandchild arrived, he quickly became attached to the young boy and wanted to spend as much time as possible with him. He had wanted to work through that portion on his own.

Following the birth of her son, Matilda married Scott Gooding, formally becoming his adolescent son’s stepmother. They had originally planned to wed on Brown and Ward’s land in New South Wales, but they had to postpone their wedding due to the fear of a wildfire.

The family was forced to evacuate after the bushfires threatened to destroy their house. Although they would have preferred to wed at home like her parents did, Matilda decided to get married in Sydney to make sure everyone was safe.

Gooding’s kid was very involved in the wedding. With a broad smile on his face, he stood behind his father during the ceremony. According to the renowned chef, the wedding was “possibly the best moment” of his life, therefore it was the perfect unforgettable occasion.

Matilda is a happy mother of two now that he has had her younger siblings taken care of. Gooding posted a cute picture of his son strolling and pulling the pram of his younger siblings.

Similar to how Ward and Brown remain involved in their children’s life, they also make an effort to spend as much time as they can with their grandchildren. The devoted grandparents post glimpses of their grandparenting on Instagram, where they participate in a variety of activities.

Ward is seen gardening with her oldest grandson Zan in one cute video. In their herb garden, they can be seen sprinkling sugar cane mulch. Gooding boasts that his mother-in-law is “nurturing” her grandkids in the same manner that she strives to take care of the surroundings.

Zan spends time with their farm’s horses when he and his grandmother, whom he refers to as “mopie,” aren’t in the garden. They also spent a Christmas at the family farm, where the devoted grandma raised her first grandchild by exposing him to the animals at a young age to help him become accustomed to them.

Anouk, her second grandchild, arrived, and Ward made sure to spend equal time with him. One day, Gooding took pictures of Ward walking with her daughter Matilda and her second grandson, capturing the precious moment.

When their daughter Rosie became engaged to her fiance Andrew Cameron in 2020, their family grew even more. The start of a stunning partnership was marked by their Instagram engagement announcement.

After a span of two years, Rosie and Andrew joyfully relocated to a stunning new residence in New South Wales. Surrounded by a forest, waterfalls, and an abundance of avocado trees, the property has a modest house.

All of their neighbors stopped by to give the gorgeous couple a warm welcome when they arrived in the neighborhood. They declare they intend to stay awhile and claim to have everything they could possibly need in the town.

Cameron is an Australian regenerative farmer who shares Ward’s enthusiasm for the practice. He was a perfect fit for the rest of the Brown family, which made it simple for everyone to get along and share interests.

Ward and Brown have raised their family admirably throughout it all. Despite the fact that their children have grown, they maintain a close relationship and try to spend as much time as possible with their in-laws. The Browns, Goodings, and Camerons were a joyful family celebrating Christmas together in 2021.

Ward claims that at that point in her life, she most likely would have been married to a third husband if she had married an American and moved to Hollywood.

Ward and Brown are enjoying a successful marriage and their children are all grown up and independent. Ward acknowledges that she thinks there’s more to life than her marriage and her family life, even after 39 years of marriage and counting. Says she:

“While my family and marriage are very important to me, they are also not the end all be all.” I want to pursue a profession in acting because I adore it.

Ward has all the connections necessary to maintain her presence in Hollywood, even if she has spent the years living in Australia. As a matter of fact, she has been making the trip to Hollywood on demand for years.

Ward claims that even though it could have been more practical for her to live in America for her career, she most likely would have been married to her third husband by then if she had married an American and moved to Hollywood.

Rather, she is in a committed relationship with the passion of her life and has complete control over her house and family. When she’s not working on a project, the actress frequently shares with her kids what she does with pride.

One day, while painting her house over several days, her daughter Rosie captured her elevating a glass and the ladder she needed to do the job. Instagram users agreed with the happy daughter’s goal of showcasing what an amazing mother Ward was.

Ward shares more on her Instagram than only her abilities and priceless family moments—her sense of humor. She corrected misinformation regarding her activities during the COVID-19 pandemic.

She reported the following facts: (1) she hadn’t visited the US in more than five years; (2) she didn’t have a personal trainer; (3) she had spent the previous ten days at the mid-north coast; and (5) she lacked COVID-19. “Take a swing at another witch,” she concluded her amusing message.

Ward works on her farm while Brown is filming “Darby and Joan” on television. Together with other things, they are the owners of The Good Farm Shop, which offers ready-made, organic meals.
