When I was a little girl, I would revel in the beauty that surrounded the unfolding of the seasons. From the first snowfall marking the arrival of winter, to the beautiful collage of color and multiple holidays that encompassed the preparation of hibernation autumn brought with it, each coming and going of Mother Nature's cycles vibrated within and throughout leaving me with a well of memories and emotions to pull on over time.

One of my most memorable seasons was and still is spring. I remember first, the last weeks of winter. Though beautiful in its own way, over time the cold nights and early ending days had me longing for the return of LIFE! Then spring would come in and transform the naked trees and weary grass into a bountiful foliage full of Robin's eggs and busy butterflies. It would bring laughing Daffodils, joyful Pansy's and ringing Bluebells. Not only did spring conjure up life from below, but from everywhere it seemed. And along with it, came LOVE. From the playful mating sparrows and flirtatious bees, to new teen age romances and renewed marriage vows, spring had a way of reawakening the Earth and all that dwelled within.

As we welcome in yet another one, let us embrace all that spring has to offer, even if it isn't your favorite season. Find beauty in the little things, in the moments within the days, and watch Mother Nature unfold. For in this world of uncertainty and unpromised tomorrows, the one thing we are guarenteed is the change of the seasons.

Big Sunday breakfasts, and even bigger dinners...

Pretty pink bonnets and shiny patent leather shoes.....

Church service in the morning, and painted egg hunts in the afternoon....

These are the memories of Easter that I carry with me in the crevices of my mind; and while the holiday itself represents different things for different people, the marrying of the religious aspect and children's folklore will always form a question mark of sorts.

Just as Santa Clause represents Christmas, a hopping life-size bunny with a basket full of colorful eggs is the quintessential image of Easter.

But how did the Easter bunny and egg hunts become synonymous with Easter anyway? And how are these various images connected to the Christian version of the holiday? Aside from the historical findings that the hare, eggs and the Prophet Yahshua’s resurrection from the dead are all symbols of ‘fertility and life’, I cram to see any other relation.

In fact, my earliest memories surrounding Easter period, remind me of a haute couture fashion show on the runways of the House of God. The biggest question was not whether or not today would be the day you asked for forgiveness for the time you cheated on your math test, but whether or not today would be the day you wore your new royal crepe back satin dress with the coordinating clasp styled hand bag. Between the spirited cat walks up the isles from the young ladies in their embroidered brocades, silky chiffons and elegant furs, to the young men in their raw linens, suiting fabrics and stylish suedes. The after service gossip overshadowed the sermon this Easter Sunday. Even more important was whether or not Sister Victoria’s Easter bonnet would outdo Sister Evelyn’s for the second year in a row. It never ceased to amaze me how she was able to keep that two-foot wide lilac gingham check printed hat with floral trim positioned so neatly while catching the Holy Spirit at the same time. I wouldn’t be surprised if TV celebrity Tyra Banks began her modeling career and got the inspiration for her current hit show ‘America’s Next Top Model’, while sitting in the pews of this very church as a child.
