In Honor of my Son Stewart


Stewart, recognize this plant? Yes, it's the dreaded "ragweed" a few minutes around this plant and you would become deathly sick, missing days of school. But today as I was walking the River Green Way I saw lots of ragweed along the way, but this one sort of just jumped and caught my eye. I stood for the longest time and just smiled. Can you see this plant, one that is so bad for you and can make so much pain in your life has a flower vined up and attached to it. Yes, even when we are in the midst of pain and horrible 'stuff' there is always beauty to be found. Today, Stewart please remember that for the many days to come while you are away, despite the pain and anguish there is beauty among the pain. Promise me you will keep looking for beauty. I love you my son, Mom :)
