Easter weekend was really busy! I was in charge of an Easter egg hunt for the little kids at church, so I spent most of the week getting ready for it. On Sunday I begged Jonathan to help me out, and we ended up being the only two workers in nursery with 14 kids ranging in age from 8 months to 4-years-old. It was pure madness! But we had lots of fun and managed to survive. However, Jonathan has changed his mind about opening a preschool with me someday.
That afternoon we came home to get ready for Easter dinner with the Glassers. We had a delicious meal – with way too much food, as usual – and lots of fun playing outside with Samuel. He really enjoyed his first Easter egg hunt…and I think I was almost as excited as he was.
The fun centerpiece for Easter dinner. My student teacher gave it to me the Friday before. She’s so sweet!
Joseph is so cute…I could just eat him up!
We hid eggs around our front yard for Samuel. He had a whole routine down when he found one. Pick it up – break it open with his teeth – take out all the candy – put candy in basket – throw egg on ground (it’s useless now, of course.)
Finding the good stuff – candy!
Pure joy
We love this family!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! I spent lots of time reflecting on what Easter really means to me. I couldn’t help but think about my mom, of course, but I was also filled with such peace and joy knowing that because of what God did for us on Easter, I will be able to spend eternity with her. What an amazing gift! I feel overwhelmed by His incredible kindness towards us all. What a great day…
