She has hung over the nativity since before I was born.
Proclaiming a heartful JOY!
Mom puts the nativity up shortly after Thanksgiving.
It has become a tradition to leave it up
Until the first flower of spring
Blooms.
Sometimes I find a single violet in January.
I bring it to her in a tiny vase, to grace her office table.
To remind us that spring does indeed follow winter.
That JOY is proclaimed year-round!
It's good for the heart.
And the soul.

Beautiful photo, beautiful tradition! Have a joyous weekend, Clytie!
I remember that angel--she is lovely, isn't she? I'm so glad she will be there until Springtime's violet blooms.
((hugs)) Makes me feel homesick for home.
Amen. Joy is what makes life worth living. Love is the glue and hearts are the combination of all. What beautiful words from a beautiful soul. Blessings to you and yours, Always Love and Light, Nina P
