Cotton Candy Sky

Posted on March 24, 2020 by Kandi

Getting up early to see a sunrise and sitting on a boat for hours before it shows was altogether fun and frustrating. Things started happening when we decided to head back to shore.

It all started out as pink and purple cotton candy.

{Miracle Tree} One Branch One Week

This year I picked one branch and took a photo of it each day to see how the tree changed each day.

{Miracle Tree} Mother’s Day

On Mother’s Day we woke up to the tree in the back blooming profusely in a deep, beautiful pink. This same tree 4 or 5 years ago seemed dead and there was talk that it would be coming down. I’m so glad it stayed!

Last year when this tree blossomed in our back yard, the blossoms lasted less than a week and the leaves withered up soon after.

This year we didn’t expect anything. One day the leaves started poking out. The next week buds had formed and soon after we had blossoms all over.

What rejoicing!
