Easter morning

April and Easter, spring and rebirth; this is my most favourite time of year, even though brilliant autumn leaves, white winter snow, and hot summer days/starry nights are all special to me.

Not everyone celebrates this holiest of seasons.

I do. Not always in church, however.

Last year on Easter Sunday my Mom enjoyed a family gathering at my younger brother's home, with three of her children, and four of her grandchildren, as well as some of my brother's in-laws. We all laughed together creating a fabulous day.

No one knew it would be our last Easter together or the last time there would be any kind of celebration in that home.

Life is unpredictable, in both sad and happy ways.

When I least expect it something magical happens restoring my faith and opening doors to possibilities, similar to that first Easter morning so long ago . . .
