Moments on Mother's Day

My "baby" with a hyacinth bouquet gift. 

Bourbon Bbq Cherry Chicken from
my amateur gourmet chef-artist husband. 

Smores with my eldest. Complete with dark chocolate.

Fern frond beauty. My gift of
fresh plants for the shade of the garden. 

One of many Mother's Day cards.
My hair is perfect. 

Easter Joy

We filled their bellies with cinnamon buns and jelly beans before heading off to Easter worship. Brass trumpet blare reached the rafters with "Jesus Christ is Risen Today." A small army assembled for the children's sermon and the front aisle flooded a sea of Easter dresses with skirts like meringue topping. Pastor John smiled as only one can smile on Easter morning. A stark white bolt of cloth draped the hanging cross suspended above. Innocence uplifted. Lifted up. He is risen indeed.
