Babydoll brought a paper cup home from Sunday School filled with dirt. A tiny seed hiding deep inside. She planted it in the front yard in the same place that her Brother did the year before. We watched it grow from the earth into one bloom bigger than her head. Some fuzzy bumble bees called it home for quite awhile. At some point the weight of the flower became too heavy even for its strong stalk to hold up. It spent weeks, months growing up toward the sun and then at some point slowly started bending its head down toward its Maker. Humbled by the beauty that He created. And yet a perfect example of the sunshine that helped warm the seed enough to start the first sign of growth.
