EASTER MEMORIES~

Easter...

Easter fills us with hope and warmth, it is a time to gather with family and friends. A time to recall memories from long ago. A new Easter dress, white patten leather shoes, cotton white gloves and a pink bow neatly tied in golden hair...

A handful of chocolate eggs tucked safely in the pocket of a wool purple coat...A chilly morning walk along an old dirt road....an island church brightly adorned with lilies, tulips and daises all brought in memory of loved ones who have gone on before us...a mother's hand, a child size plant, skinned knees...jellybeans... a new stuffed animal...a younger brother eating my chocolate rabbit...grandparents, newly arrived off the ten o'clock boat...a mother now adorned in her apron...wonderful aromas fill this old Island home...a home filled with love and happiness....memories...tucked safely in my heart...
