Spring + God = New Hope

There's something about the spring that fills one with a new expectant hope. Something growing, just as the tulips are sticking there heads out of the dirt. Something exciting and promising. But also a lesson to be learnt. While the days are warm and sunny, nights are very cool even frosting still. See bulbs, like people, need to be seasoned. Slow in coming, taking time to get aquanted with the weather before they allow the delicate flower pettles to be exposed. While I long to see the beauty that is developing under the soil, it needs to come in Gods time to last. Just as our love for this special baby boy has been weathered, it needed it to be strong and of the highest quality. For this I am so thankful to our Lord.

I took the week and headed out to my family's cabin in BC to visit and spend some quality time with family. It's been wonderful. The weather is beautiful, sunny and warm (compaired with our usual Fort Mac weather). We've taken daily walks, spent hours visiting and mostly enjoying the gift of fellowship and friendship. A few tears shed, but mostly laughter and smile's. Kevin is driving out to join us for Easter.

While there are moments of sadness the last week has been filling us with a renewed joy. Good for us (myself and the baby). Peaceful. Thanks again for the prayers, I can't express how much we feel them. I will continue to update you.

God's Easter Blessing to All!
