So first I will give you a little background information, My father and mother have always told me paranormal stories for as long as I can remember, from their own experiences. I always thought they were interesting but never really believed them until i had one of my own. My mom told me that when I was a baby a 5yr old boy "spirit", or whatever, followed me everywhere and protected me. She found this boy through a Ouija board..
I've heard many, many things from my dad. once in the middle of the night my mom couldnt move her feet. she woke up my dad and told him that someone had their hands around her ankles and she couldnt move, but nothing was there. he got up to check out the house and says that what he believes to be the devil was sitting in the living room recliner, as if it were a throne. it had hooves, and huge gnarly horns similar to a ram.. a very detailed and overpowering, strong creature.
Since then, my parents have seperated..
dad has told me that he has woken up in the night and seen a female imp like thing sucking the breathe out of his current girlfriend while she was sleeping. He pointed and shooed it out and it just up and flew out of the wall, peeked its head back through the wall with a very curious look which my dad thinks that the thing couldnt believe that he saw it, and then back out the wall and left.
So I guess you could call my parents, spiritual?
Which I thought was a load of crap until this...

The first night I brought my beautiful baby boy home from the hospital..
My mom was asleep with her husband in their bedroom, and my dad and his girlfriend were asleep in the living room. they were down to see the baby.
My boyfriend and I were sleeping in my room with the baby sleeping in his bassinet right next to our bed.
It was probably 2:30, 3:00am, in the middle of the night
I woke up and my boyfriend was propped up on an elbow dead staring over near the baby.
I asked a few times, what are you doing, what are you looking at?
then I look over in his line of sight to see for myself
and the only words i can really use to describe what i saw is "something white"
hovering/floating over top of baby's bassinet.
In my pitch black bedroom i saw this white thing floating over my baby.
I was frozen in fear for just a split second.
I couldn't breathe, move, talk, nothing.
and then I bolted faster then I ever have before, for the light switch and the door.
meanwhile screaming my lungs out.
I woke up everyone in the house, of course they were freaking out.
once I caught my breathe I explained what just happened.
When i was done, my boyfriend tells that he saw a white opossum with very sharp fangs.
I still cannot remember what i saw. I think about it everyday and I try to picture it again, sometimes i think i may have seen a wing. All I know is that it was white. My boyfriend knows exactly what he saw and when we talk about it he says he thought that he was dreaming and when i was screaming and saw it too, realized it was not a dream.
My mom swares up and down that it was my grandma who passed away when i was younger, she said she prayed for her to watch over him while i was pregnant.
My dad has had/seen several things like this and called a psychic/spiritual friend of his,
the lady told me that since it was white there is no possibility that it could have been evil and that it was probably a guardian angel.
She also said that two lovers can become intertwined and be having the same dream together during sleep.


I really don't know anything about this sort of thing and just looking for some sort of answer, any advice or input would be much appreciated.
i've googled and googled, and can't find anything to match my boyfriends description as to what we saw... what the hell is this thing?
