A Prince and an Easter Poem

You may have noticed I don't post on Sundays.

Last Sunday was my son's birthday...

and I couldn't let it go unremembered here.

What's more, my sister's birthday is today!
My brother-in-law's is Friday.
And my mom's is Saturday.
My husband's was two weeks ago,
as was my son-in-law's.

April is a busy month for us!
Happy Birthday, everyone.

I hope you will take a minute to hop over to We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in Christ, where I am guest posting with my newest poem about Easter, "Living Water: Cleansing the Disciples." This poem happens to be one of my very favorites, and I'd love to share it with you right here.

The bigger our family gets, the more birthdays to celebrate! We have birthdays for 9 months outta the year so far. We start in March, have one in April, one in May, one in June, one in July, 3 in August, none in September, one in October, 3 in November, and one in December.
That's just our immediate family.

Your son is so handsome--hope his day was perfect!

Sue, you really are my inspiration in writing and poetry. You have such a wonderous gift. I loved your poem and Christ truly is our Living Water.
Loved the pictures of your son.
Lots of fun birthdays to celebrate.
Tell your mother I miss her posts. She is so delightful.
Blessings to you! LeAnn

I just went over and read your poem...made me want to cry. Having us feel what it might have been like to have my feet bathed by the Lord...from your poem...just intensifies my testimony. Thank you...you always do that.

Wow April truly is a big month for you! We only have 1 birthday (my sister in law) in April. Our busy months are May and June :-D

Happy Birthday to your son, your husband, your sister and on....

Wow! Your April is jam packed. A great month to be born, just ask my daughter.

I love this picture of Ryan and when this month is over, I will no longer see him on my calander. I am going to have to get a copy to put on my wall. Too bad, someone else will have to come down for a time because I haven't had enough of Ryan to last me.

We do have a lot of April birthdays in our family, don't we?

What a handsome man!! Happy birthday to him and all the others in your family who are celebrating.

And I loved your poem. It was beautiful. I especially loved the last couple lines. They just pierced my heart--in a good way.

Amy said...

Your April is like our May. I have four nieces or nephews born in that month, a sister in law, my husband, and two brothers. It is BUSY! Happy birthday to all.
