Easter

My children got new bunnies for Easter. It is amazing to watch the wonder in their eyes as they experience new life. New life is all around us. Blossoms are on our peach and apricot trees and the tulips in the garden are begining to blossom.

Easter was so sweet. We spent Saturday decorating eggs and telling story's like Peter Rabbit and the Velveteen Rabbit. Our children played with the bunnies and hunted down their eggs in the grass. We ended the eventful day with a picnic of spring salad, fresh fruit and grilled trout that the boys and their dad caught that very morning in the river. What a wonderful time of year spring is.

Jen,

I love you even more for these posts. I was listening to seven habits while I was cleaning out and organizing the spice rack this morning, and I thought, I am so happy for posts like this...You remind me how good it feels to focus on the important things. Isn't Easter just great? We read "country bunny", and my children were so excited about wearing golden shoes, that they all offered to make my bed every morning and do the dishes every night. I just love my kids!
