Last October, another dogwood was planted near the town's youth football field - again, in memory of Josh. You can read about it here.
I am told that it is unusual for newly planted trees to bloom in the first year. And yet, Josh's trees have done so. My grieving heart takes comfort in this small occurrence. Even though it has been over a year, it is still so very, very hard.
I will end this short post with a slideshow of pictures taken when he was 10 years old.
God Bless

they are beautiful. i still think about josh all the time way up here in michigan, even though i havent seen him since middle school. I love reading your blog, it makes me feel connected in some way to the whole situation, and keeps him alive in my mind. That picture at the top has been my computer background since it happened, his smirk is unforgettable. His spirit lives on and you are still regularly in my prayers. Hang in there, God bless.

I'm so glad the tree is blooming! It looks beautiful.
Love you, Josh.
It seems like Josh has smiled down on the trees and they bloomed to encourage you :) They are beautiful!!! I love Dogwoods too.
