DANIELLE'S BIRTHDAY TREE
If I were to tell you about the most beautiful tree in the whole wide world, it would be your Birthday Tree Danielle. I am sure you remember it. It was huge and seemed to be as wide as our entire backyard. It's branches went on and on, way up into the sky. The most glorious part of this tree was that it bloomed in May, just in time for your birthday every year. It had huge pale pink blossoms, thousands of them. We would plan to have your birthday parties outside under this magnificent tree. Remember the year we tied all different colored balloons to the branches, that was a sight to behold. We used to have picnics under the tree in the afternoon. We would look up to see the blue sky between the branches and the pink blossoms. It was the best time of the year, May. The weather was perfect, warm breezes and sunny skies. Then before you knew it, the petals started to fall from the tree. The soft wind would blow the blossoms around and it almost looked like pink snow. The end of May, the end of your Birthday Tree. I am in awe everytime I see the handiwork of God through the seasons. How trees can go from a vibrant flowering pink to multi-colored leaves to the shedding of its leaves. How in one season, Winter, a tree can look as if its life has gone out of it. But soon again, comes May and back are those glorious blossoms. Just a reminder, that God is awesome and He is always in control. Happy Birthday Danielle-May, 19th Love Mom
