Spring Blooms

Sunday was such a beautiful day. After church we toured around the city admiring the full bloom of spring. This season especially, after all the storm damage in the last year, one can clearly appreciate the growth and renewal at work. New foliage is beginning to hide the scared trees. Workers have trimmed and hauled away the dead branched and planted new trees and bushes to replace the lost. The landscape is certainly different with some setbacks and some improvements. This change is good, but not without its challenges. Likewise, the boys have changed dramatically too since last spring. Gone are the precious infants we treasured so much replaced by adorable toddlers full of energy. They are blooming into little boys, and this change is good but not without its challenges.
