Easter!

The Easter Bunny hooked Mady up with art supplies and Mika up with a Rapunzel dress!

Oh, the joys of dying Easter eggs:) Mika had a bit of a panic attack when the dye would not come off of her hands. She ran around hollering, "Help! It won' come off, It won't come off!" A little baking soda did the trick!

Finished product: food coloring worked wonders!

We started today off the day with you girls sitting and listening to the letter from the Easter Bunny which explained why Easter is so special. You both know the true meaning and we have celebrated this for several days. It was yucky after church but Mamaw and Papaw always know how to make it fun! Dinner was great and hunting eggs with Thomas in the rain made the day feel complete. Nana and Poppi went out of their way to make you girls feel special as they always do. They got you Easter goodies and some new clothes. We are so thankful for the family who loves and supports us and pray that we, as your parents, will bring as much joy to our future grand-babies.

I am watching my daughters grow so much and at times it is hard to handle. Every stage has been equally beautiful but if I could just slow down the clock. I'm so proud of their Daddy, he is growing in his understanding of Lord in a way that he never has before. I see excitement in his eyes as we learn new scripture and March 19 he chose to pick out a Bible for himself (one moment I have prayed for for years). I feel so blessed to be his wife. He works so hard so that we are taken care of and so that I can take care of everything at home. This has been one blessed year as we have called upon the Lord and I want to shout it out. This life that I live is all because Jesus died and rose again and I choose to believe Him!
