Today is Easter, and it was fabulous. We went to Sunday School to celebrate our love for Jesus and then we headed home for a fun filled day with family. Everyone was coming over to our house so I was racing around like a mad woman trying to make my house sparkling clean. We enjoyed a potluck lunch with delicious ham, mashed potatoes, bakes yams, and some sugary treats as well. Thank God for the wonderful sunshine that broke through so we could go spend time outdoors! What a sweet surprise that we were able to sit in the grass and let the kids run around on dry ground for a change. The men broke out the croquet set and the women sat around talking for at least two hours just soaking in the warm fresh air. I told Talullah that Easter is about Jesus and how He loves us so much. She shook her head yes with a serious look on her face. Nick walked in the room just at that moment so I asked her to tell daddy what Easter is all about. She replied "Eggs!". I guess we'll have to try that bible lesson again next year. I am so thankful that we serve a Savior who died, but rose again. His death on the cross was just the end of a new beginning! It is so refreshing to go to church and be able to feel His presence time and again. Happy Easter, everyone!
