The blossoms of a weeping cherry in our front yard would wait for the beginning of May to open. Among the photos I have of my mother, one of my favorites was taken in front of that tree. She spent her last two years living with us. Even after ten years, it’s easy to see the content in her eyes on Mother’s Day.

spring’s offer of cheer
colorful cherry display
blossoms bringing smiles
