JONATHAN'S TREE
I walked up the driveway to check the mail last Saturday and stopped so suddenly that Yellow Dog bumped into my legs. There, a few yards from me, stood "Jonathan's Tree," its limbs heavy with gorgeous blossoms. Click on the pictures to enlarge.
Planted in the spring of 2006 in memory of my precious grandson Jonathan Joseph, the tree is a loving reminder of that sweet little boy.
This is how "Jonathan's Tree" looked in 2010. Splendid then, it is spectacular now, don't you think? The photo below was taken this past Saturday.
We almost bought a weeping cherry back in 2006 because they are so beautiful, but I didn't want anything connected to weeping or sadness. Instead, we selected this ornamental cherry with its branches reaching toward heaven and our grandson.
I moved closer for the next shot.
