Another Grandma Favorite

I love 4 and 5 year olds. They are the best. The things they say are so funny. They are so honest and so delightful to talk to. They make everyday fun. Here is one of my all time favorites. This little girl had so many problems but she was a barrel of fun and I loved her. I pray that I gave her two great years in a life more troubled than any little girl should have to endure. I thank God daily that I got to spend so many hours with children. A not so secret secret, even though I love them I don't tolerate much nonsense. I do think children should and can behave.

Easter Baskets

I found the picture of the Easter Baskets that I mention in the next entry. I had to take a picture of a picture and it isn't great, but you can get the idea. Now to find the actual Easter baskets.

Easter

What a golorious wonderful time is Easter. It has always been my absolute favorite holiday. Easter is filled with glorious hope and promise. Because of the resurrection we can face each and every tomorrow. When Christ came out of the grave he destroyed forever the power of the devil. I love singing the songs at church and I love the wonderful story from the scripture. Years ago we always had a sunrise service and I loved that. I also love celebrating by wearing something new. I feel like I dress up for Jesus, or dress up for the big celebration party. My Easter secret is that I also love Easter baskets. I made myself feel better about them by always labeling them He Is Risen!! One year I got it into my head to make each girl, including Liz a fabric Easter basket. Time got short and I had too much to do. I remember staying up late the night before Easter finishing those baskets and crying because I was exhausted. My reward was a darling picture. Right now I don't know where the picture or the baskets are. Celebrate Jesus!!
