We had an egg hunt for the kids at home on Easter morning. Emily was all about it. Lincoln kept getting distracted by the other stuff in the basket. There is a video in the April video player.
Here are the kids enjoying their M&M's and jellybeans.
Emily was very excited to pose for a picture in her Easter dress. Lincoln was not in a cooperative mood at all. Side note: Lincoln is wearing the same pair of khaki pants as he did for last Easter's picture. Crazy.
I think Emily is starting to grasp the true meaning of Easter thanks to preschool, Sunday school and reading from The Jesus Storybook Bible
. She figured out that crosses are about Jesus and not just the letter "t". We argued back and forth for days about whether Jesus died on a Friday or a Saturday. Now her quick explanation of Easter is: "Friday was a bad day. Saturday was a day off. Sunday was a happy day." Happy Easter!
So sweet. I was a ding dong and did not get Easter pictures. I love Lincoln's shiny face and cheeks! Mieke had the same questions about Friday, Saturday, Easter Sunday. The way Emily puts it makes sense. Never really thought about the "Sabbath" and a day odd. I totally agree with her! Thank you Emily for a little injection of theology to my morning.
