First Signs of Spring

My mom was in the house sleeping and I was quietly wasting time playing on my laptop the day that she died.  Her garden was starting to bloom and I think everyone was sad that she wasn't going to get to see the pretty flowers, so I decided to go outside and take some pictures to update this blog with that I could show her later.  I didn't know that morning that there wasn't going to be a later.  She never got to see these pictures of the beautiful garden that she planted, but I figured I should post them in her memory anyway.

I love the symbolism of the circle of life in these pictures as death and new life are happening simultaneously.  It's a nice reminder that death isn't the end and we can all be together again someday.  I'm looking forward to it.  I grew up in this house and will be very sad to sell it and see other people living in it.
