My neighbor's Crepe Myrtle is already starting to bloom.

I simply, do not know what they do. They are such a young couple, but their garden seems to know that Spring is right around the corner.
I am so sad that they took down the palm trees and the banana tree that they had in their yard.
It is beautiful that in a new community, the trees are all new and growing and starting to bud. Around the corners, there are communities whose trees are above the houses, Not many around here, though. When we walk around the neighborhood, there are young couples and young families trying to make ends meet. The children's bus picks them up and they go to school together and play in the school yard together. They will grow to govern themselves and I hope one another, learning the lessons that we are teaching them. Norman Rockwell painted pictures that are synonymous with the season that we are in. Little children, need a reason to continue on. The reason is for the glory of God. They don't know what that means. They only know our neighbors have a history in this community and so do we. They only know that parents and grandparents have set the stage for them to perform on and now it is their turn to be the children on the stage and soon it will be time for them to star and Star they will!
