An Easter Lily


When I see an Easter Lily I think of my mom.  She loved it when my dad bought her one to wear to Mass on Easter Sunday. He was so romantic that way. Whenever I hosted a holiday he would bring me flowers.  I don't remember thanking him enough.  It wasn't quite the same buying my own yesterday at the grocery store. Oh well, this is a sweet memory!

If your parents are still living, give them an extra big hug this weekend!

One of my biggest regrets is not thanking my Mom enough. But, I still have my Dad, so this is a great reminder to me. I hope you have a blessed Easter. Blessings, my friend!

Holidays are difficult especially the first year after you lose someone special. Hope you enjoy your own Easter lily as you remember your mom. Blessed Easter! He is risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia.

I went and saw my Mom this afternoon and brought her an Easter bag.

She's in a nursing home and so much happier than I have seen her in the past few years.

I hugged her.

Just think Jesus probably hugs your Mom and my Dad every day in heaven.
