Easter Suprise

Other then me just getting over the flu and Andy still going through it, Easter was a blast this year! Gracie was totally into it. She would hop and dance and squeal with delight as she'd go from egg to egg. And it didn't take long for her to find her basket. I swear she has like a sixth sense candy detector. She got in some good practice at an Easter egg hunt with her cute cousins over at Grandma's the day before.

Lucy, not into too much, but she did enjoy watching her sister bounce off the walls.

The best part for me was the family night before. I told Gracie all about Jesus and read her a book about His life. I have before, but this time she soaked it right up. She got so excited to hear that He loves her and all the people she loves. And when I told her that He came back to life after He had died her eyes would get really big and she'd say, 'Oh!' It could've been the way I said it that made it sound pretty cool, cause she is so young, but I like to think that she grasped some of the meaning. It's so fun to teach children, especially about things that are so dear to my heart.

I so adore and love these girls and want so desperately to live with them for eternity. This is true happiness.
