The two brothers


We did quite a lot of waiting for Easter--and Spring, which is the embodiment of Easter, new life-- this year. I'd already heard how my parents in El Paso, TX were all sunny and warm while we wore sweaters and jackets still.

Finally, we rejoice in warmer weather. Here is a photo by the tree outside our parish church. In our transition from seasons, we noticed how that tree went from bare branches to little buds of green, to white blossoms, to a shower of white petals upon the ground and bright Spring green leaves on the branches!

Gregory went almost all winter with shorts (in was a mild winter), but here David Joseph is sporting shorts for the first time this year.

Here you can see the physical resemblances and differences of the two brothers! As a mother, I'm enjoying also getting to know their inner similarities and differences. :-) Motherhood--connecting with my "nuclear" family--has led me, as well, to want to connect with you.

Branches are in such plentiful green array now that I write to not forget what a marvel happened as Spring came... bit by bit, a coming alive because of Him!Posted by Hello
