Celebrating with Color

Well, I was so hoping to have good news, making Easter even easier to celebrate! Each time a holiday arrives, I am hopeful. Back around Thanksgiving, I thought it would just be perfect to get a referral. What sweet news for which to be thankful! Then, Christmas crept up. Again, I believed this must be God's perfect time. But, it passed. Presidents Day, Valentines Day, Groundhog Day, St. Patrick's Day, and now Easter will all pass without a referral. These are a lot of holidays! But, especially as Easter arrives, I'm learning that I need to be willing to celebrate what God has done despite my disappointments/circumstances. Yes, it would have been sweet to celebrate our little boy this Sunday; however, my heart will be more free to completely celebrate Jesus and His saving grace. And, I am so thankful for what Jesus has done for me. So, this weekend, we will all celebrate! I wish all of you many blessings as you celebrate what Jesus did for you.
On another sweet note. . . Here is Raegan posing by some of the hyacinths that are blooming. She and I planted them last fall. It has been so sweet to watch them grow this spring and provide our somewhat barren landscaping with some color!
