Easter

Happy Easter!

While the Easter Bunny did make an appearance I tried to stress the true meaning of Easter to Lilly this year. She seems to understand though she did love her basket. I explained that the bunny and basket of goodies is just a fun spring addition to Easter and that we want to remember that Jesus was resurrected and promised eternal life for all who believe in Him. We read books about the story of Easter and talked a lot about Jesus. She's a wonderful age to explore the stories of the Bible and talk about what we believe as Christians.

Aunt Sherry sent Ella a beautiful dress for her birthday that I used as her Easter dress. I bought Lilly the matching dress and was thrilled that it was sunny and warm so they could wear their outfits without sweaters!

Ella hasn't a clue about Easter, Jesus, or the Easter Bunny but she did quickly figure out that there was something in the eggs and it was very yummy.

I hope that you had a wonderful Easter or a beautiful Sunday (whichever you celebrate).
