Heart Break and Loneliness
Characterized by loss and moving forward into new "Spring" areas. This can be a physical death, or an empty nest, or an end of an era: Change.
For example the quick stage of Winter is when a mom finds out she is pregnant again for the second time. There is a transition from going for one child until the next. With each transition there presents the opportunities for change and restructuring of the home. It is soon Awaked by Spring of the New Birth, thus passing more quickly.

Here are my thought on Winters Night...
The winter season is characterized by a few traits. The first is the “empty nest” where our children are leaving the nest and building one for themselves. Hopefully it’s not to soon after they are in college. Tbe second I see is a change in relationship with your child. Maybe it’s the dawn of a new baby being born so it’s a saying good bye to an only child to welcome in another spring new life. Or maybe it’s an ending of a marriage, pathing the way for a new family unit to appear. The last consideration is the actual death of a child or parent. God forbid we face this, but it is a very real occurance in life.
In keeping though with these seasons, we see that the seasons aren’t a true cut and dry stage of life. You could be a winter spring mom where you are having your second baby and having to help your first child adjust to the new additions Then again you might be a spring summer mom, there you had the new baby and now your oldest child is in grade school, and so on and so on. But no matter what season you or I are in, God is there to help us through it all.
God understands the season because He created them. He sympathizes with us, and encourages along every bit of our journey. We learn, we grow and after it all we’ve done our part and it’s good. “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not” Galations 1:9. You can be confident that through it all, He will.
