A MUCH BELATED UPDATE

It has been about two months or so, since my last entry and there are a few items that should be documented, at this time. First item of note, would have taken place nearly two months ago. It was on a Saturday and when I came home from work, that night, my mother told me that she and Rachel had been sitting out at the dining room table. They both looked around them and realized that they were surrounded; it would appear that all of our spirits were standing around the table, watching them.
They did nothing-just watched them for a while and then left, returning to the upstairs.
Next, my mother's one guinea pig, Sunshine, passed away a couple of weeks ago. She, the girls and I were all in the dining room, afterward, and my mother noticed that the man, the one we call "Richard" was sitting across the table from her and disappeared. I am not sure, but in our house the loss of even a pet is a loss of a family member; do our spirits feel compassion for us at these times? Rachel had lost a hamster, Gigi, a few months ago and right about the time he would have passed, my mother said that she had seen the woman, Rachel refers to as Sara Grayford, and the cat standing at Gigi's cage looking in. I wonder if they could see and communicate with this little spirit when it left it's little body? Surely, if the spirit of a cat can inhabit our home, then a little hamster should have a spirit, too, shouldn't it?
As September 11 approached, my mother made note that a couple of our spirits seemed restless. Particularly, our blonde haired lady. My mother mentions seeing her crying on the very eve of 9/11. Some of the others, Rachel claims died in 9/11, as well, like "Sara Grayford".
Finally, I think it would be worth mentioning, as well, that Rachel had an accident just about three weeks ago. She was in the living room, alone, where she fell and cut her toe, very badly. Only she didn't just fall, she says that someone pushed her and none of us can explain how she cut her toe; there is nothing around that she could have cut it on. I believe that it is possible that she may have been pushed. She'd been complaining of getting her hair pulled a few times prior to this incident. Whether it was meant to actually harm her or merely to get her attention, I am not certain.
As far as Rachel's abilities go, I've recently been informed that Rachel's geography teacher feels that Rachel is afraid of him, because she seems to act as though she were at times. However, I went to high school in this building and I believe that I recall this room having been used by a math teacher, at that time. He was a large, bald-headed man-very intimidating. He'd retired several years ago and passed away only about a year or two ago. I am wondering if Rachel sees him, sometimes still in his old classroom. I am going to show her a picture of him in my yearbook, without telling her why, to test my theory; I'll let everyone know the outcome of this.
Otherwise, the house is pretty much the same. The lady of the house still rocks and hums in her chair and the occasional little prank still occur.
