Easter

Happy Resurrection day to all my friends.  We are so blessed.  Our morning started by the kids having candy and hard boiled eggs for breakfast, shooting rockets and bouncing balls and blowing bubbles in the house. 
Then we settled down to watch "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.." and explaining the parallels between the movie and Easter.   Some of the kids got it, others not so much, but our second feature was the new Veggietale "Twas the Night Before Easter" for the small fry. 
Then something amazing happened.  Every single one of our kids spent some time with their new devotionals.  Only God could have guided me to ones each kid would relate to.  I especially like E2's one, because it has an emphasis on our stewardship of the earth.
Easter Dinner was ham, cheesy taters, sweet taters, corn and broccoli, shared with my fantastic in-laws.  Now we're all in the post food daze.
Peace be with you.  It was with us today.
