Last year, my family went through what I (unaffectionately) called "Second Lent." I remember that we had almost made it to Holy Week. The days were getting warmer. There was more daylight, which is always an amazing feeling after the long, dark days of winter in the Northeast! The hope of spring was starting to poke its way into my heart as winter and Lent were quickly drawing to a close.
That feeling lasted about 24 hours. Then, within the course of a week, two very hard, unexpected crosses showed up into our lives!
