This year I am amazed by the flowers in my flower bed that just come up. Somehow, they just know that it is time, and they magically, whimsically appear and flourish. Moreover, I don't know that the wonder of it is something I will ever get over. Seeing spring through the eyes of Josiah and Esther, adds a completely new layer of wonder for me. So often, I must muddle through my own lame explanations of why flowers grow and seeds sprout. Why do they really? Why is it that flowers bud and trees grow? It is such a magical thing that I know my words cannot do justice to the mystery of it all. Life is such a blessed occurrence, and we take it for granted until we try to explain it to our children. Then we must realize that it is simply beyond us.
