The Ultimate Gift

This is the first Easter Sunday since I became a mother last May.  I see the holiday in a different light this year.  While I have always been emotionally touched by God the Father's gift of His son for our salvation, I now see the price that Jesus' mother Mary gave as well.  I look at my sweet Jackson and I cannot believe that some day he will be a man.  I cannot imagine the pain Mary felt as she watched her beloved boy go through his persecution and death.  I pray that you have a wonderful Easter and reflect on the ultimate gift we were given.  God bless.
Love,
Nicole
