We had a wonderful Easter Sunday this year. I love experiencing the wonder of it all through the eyes of my children. For several weeks, part of Maddie's prayer at night would include, "Thank you God for sending Jesus to die on the cross for me." On Easter night, on her own, she changed it to, "Thank you God for letting Jesus rise from the dead!" She has prayed that every night since. Shouldn't we all be that thankful. I want to have a heart of gratitude, even on those days that seem less than joyful!
The Easter Bunny made a stop at our house.
Here they are checking out their loot.
Maddie and Ella waiting for everyone else to get ready.

Hey thanks for the post. It is very tough falling out of love with fat and, believe it or not, being fat. There is a sense of protection associated with it. I think it will work out for us. I had some of your cookies a while back at Wade and Jennifer's house. GREAT!
The kids look adorable.
