Today as Eli and I walked up to a new park (very cute and fun, by the way!) we saw a tree. This tree was decorated for Easter... Bunnies, eggs, streamers... I thought it was cute. Then I got close enough to see that it was a tree planted in memory of a little girl named Amanda. She was only 9 years old when she passed away. I looked at Eli as he looked at the bunny and laughed and it was just another reminder... Another reminder of how close we were to planting a tree... Another reminder of how blessed we are everyday we get to see and hear and touch and talk to Eli. I said a little prayer for Amanda's parents as we walked away from the Easter tree. Thank you Jesus for blessing us everyday! Please help us to see all the blessings in our lives, even the seemingly everyday moments that we take for granted!
