Today is Easter.
He is Risen indeed.
We watch movies depicting HIS life.
We cringe at the suffering that we see and read.
I cannot imagine enduring such pain.
It humbles me to think and remember.
That HE loves me so much, HE died for me.
But today, today HE IS RISEN.

We've never pushed the Easter bunny on our children. I always thought them too smart to fall for it ;)
They are all VERY observant people.
They are intuitive and well, not, easily fooled.
Which is a good thing!
So, we started our Sunday morning by having my two boys open up a little something that I bought for them {my grown daughter also gets a treat bag ;)}.
They each get some candy (which is a REAL treat, because we don't keep candy in the house!)
And my little guy got some extra little things from the dollar store that he loves: glow sticks and a gun that shoots plastic balls. Every boy's dream I tell you!
Then we ate some breakfast and got ready for church.
It was a wonderful day at church.
When we came back, my husband prepared a wonderful dinner for us. And we thanked our Heavenly Father for such a gift of HIS son and for the many blessings which HE has bestowed upon us.
Happy Easter indeed!
