New Life


In our home there has been plenty of new life! Last week was the joyous arrival of the sweet babies. This week it's Easter Sunday. Holding our little sweet babies, made us stop and think about how very special it is to celebrate new life.
So today we are sharing a few thoughts (and photos from our garden!) on the celebration of new life.




























Hurray for the coming of Spring and Easter!

"While God, for the most part, allows this cosmos (creation) to work according to the laws of nature, there is never a time when He is not actively involved in every detail of life" Charles R. Swindoll


“Spring drew on...and a greenness grew over those brown beds, which, freshening daily, suggested the thought that Hope traversed them at night, and left each morning brighter traces of her steps.” Charlotte Bronte,  Jane Eyre

 
"Let us ask ourselves: how do I follow Jesus? Jesus speaks in silence in the Mystery of the Eucharist. He reminds us every time that following him means going out of ourselves and not making our life a possession of our own, but rather a gift to him and to others" Pope Francis -Corpus Christi Homily


"If you want a new life, first give praise for having the old one" Stephen Richards

"With the coming of spring, I am calm again." Gustav Mahler

“The moon was obscured by heavy clouds. January was already past the mid-mark and the early delta spring would soon be on them. Already on the night was the faint, fresh smell of buddings and the intimacy that comes from the warm delta air trapped between slumbering earth and lowering clouds.”   Leslie H. Whitten Jr., Moon of the Wolf    


"A baby is God's opinion that life should go on" Carl Sandburg

"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending." Maria Robinson


"Can words describe the fragrance of the very breath of spring" Neltje Blanchan
