My son is a joy. He's so observant and sweet

He has always been a little afraid to learn to ride his bike, especially on our rocky Pocono Mountain community roads. Since Easter was a beautiful Spring day, my husband and I took my son to the school parking lot. There he could practice riding on a smooth paved surface. We were delighted when he rode his bike for the longest time ever with the least amount of fear. We both just wished he could do the same at home.

As we were about to pull into our driveway my son said, "Look! Yellow flowers." My husband stopped our truck for a moment so we could enjoy them. Who would think a 7 year old would even notice let alone care. I said, "Bloomed for the first time ever on Easter day!" as my son said, "Ahhh... That's sweet."

After we pulled into our driveway and got out of the truck, my son asked his dad to get his bike out. He had never done that before. He would just run into the house and start playing with something else. Leaving the fear of bike ridding behind.

My husband and I couldn't believe it when my son jumped on his bike and peddled off. Not a worry on his mind, just a huge smile across his face. It seemed like the sight of those daffodils filled his little heart with so much joy he forget his fear.

As I watched my son ride off a tear of joy spilled down my cheek, I thought, 'Yes... The daffodils are sweet and so are you.' Then I thanked God for those daffodils, a symbol of new beginnings and rebirth. Those daffodils were our true Easter sweets.
