Christmas in May

Our Christmas cactus plant

One of my favorite parts of Christmas is seeing our Christmas cactus in bloom. I love the pink flowers that seem to surprise me every year. “Did you see the Christmas cactus?” I will ask my family.

To our surprise, it is blooming again! This doesn’t usually happen. Is it a sign that life is resuming again? I hope so. Should we get the Christmas tree out, too?

The recent governor’s announcement of life possibly returning to some kind of normalcy on July 4 definitely gives hope. It’s like the plant, reminding me that life will return like the blossoms return every December. #rejoicingalways
