Money Tree

[admin]

SPECIAL THOUGHTS
Often when my children were little, one of them would want
something that cost too much, and I'd have to say, "Do you
see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you
know."

Years later, on a warm, spring Mother's Day morning, I happened
to look out my window and saw a new tree planted right in my
yard. I put my glasses on and couldn't believe what I saw. There
were dollar bills taped all over the new tree - a hundred of them,
in fact.

I live up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where winters are long
and cold and summers are way too short. But every winter now,
I look out my window and think about what my children did for
me, and I get tears in my eyes - every time. I'm still not sure
that money grows on trees. But I know love does.
