By the time I got outsid

2、e, hed broken it. Can I take this to school today? he asked. With a wave of my hand, I sent him off. I turned my back so he wouldnt see the tears gathering in my eyes. I loved that azalea bush. I touched the broken limb as if to say silently, Im sorry.I wished I could have said that to my husband ea

3、rlier, but Id been angry. The washing machine had leaked on my brand-new linoleum. If hed just taken the time to fix it the night before when I asked him instead of playing checkers with Jonathan. What are his priorities anyway? I wondered. I was still mopping up the mess when Jonathan walked into t

I smeared the toast with jelly and set it in front of him. Why was I so angry? I tossed my husbands dishes into the sudsy water.It was days like

5、 this that made me want to quit. I just wanted to drive up to the mountains, hide in a cave, and never come out.Somehow I managed to lug the wet clothes to the laundromat. I spent most of the day washing and drying clothes and thinking how love had disappeared from my life. Staring at the graffiti o

Jonathans class let out at 2:15. I dumped the clothes in the back seat and hurriedly drove to the school.I was out of breath by the ti

She said something to Jonathan and handed him and two other children crayons and a sheet of paper.What now? I thought, as she rustled through the door and took me aside. I want to talk to yo

8、u about Jonathan, she said.I prepared myself for the worst. Nothing would have surprised me. Did you know Jonathan brought flowers to school today? she asked. I nodded, thinking about my favorite bush and trying to hide the hurt in my eyes. I glanced at my son busily coloring a picture. His wavy hai

Let me tell you about yesterday, the teacher insisted. See that little girl? I watched the bright-eyed child laugh and point to a colorful picture tap

As my mind wandered back to the love Jonathan showed the little

While my son had put love into practice, I had only felt anger.I heard the familiar squeak of my husbands brakes as he pulled into the drive. I snapped a small limb bristling with hot pink azaleas off the bush. I felt the seed of love that God planted in my family beginning to bloom once again in me.
