Magnolia trees,you see,were my mother’s favorite.We had one in the front yard of our house when I was growing up.I can still remember Mom抯 pleasure upon seeing it.揙h,look,?she抎 shout every year,搕he magnolia tree is going to bloom.擮n April 6,her birthized tday,the pink-and-white flowers would be all over the branches,announcing the arrival of spring.
Back then,I didn抰 find the blooming of a tree to be an event worthy of celebration.But my mother had a way of appreciating the smallest things.A baby抯 smile,or a call from an old friend filled her with happiness.is
On the first Mother抯 Day following her death six years ago,I wasn抰 sure how I抎 live.I felt my mother was everywhere.iat
That Sunday morning I awoke.I wondered where my husband David had gone with our two daughters,Kira,4,and Sophie,9 months.As I was lying in bed,enjoying the peace,Kira suddenly burst in through the bedroom door.
揕ook outside,Mommy!?she ordered.Next to David was a little tree.揑t抯 a magnolia tree,?Kira said.I raised the window and called out to David.揌appy Mother抯 Day,?he said. suddenl
Although I didn抰 have my mother any longer,iI had her tree.When the magnolia blooms,we admire its beauty and use it as a chance to talk about my mother and her love for flowers.These moments help keep her spirit alive.
