monumental springtime

Spring hath sprung. A couple weeks ago, actually. For the first time in my memory, the month of March brought flowering trees, green grass, and tulips. And as we celebrated Resurrection Sunday today, green buds had appeared on even the bigger trees. Though it’s been said a thousand times before, spring does remind me of God’s goodness. Especially when it arrives in March!

On Good Friday, we visited the famous cherry blossoms at the tidal basin. (Pictures below.) It felt a bit celebratory for the day marking Christ’s death on the cross, but we ended the day with a simple, solemn church service. And today … He is Risen!
