New Life

"New Life" was kind of the theme around our house this Easter. It was fun to look out the windows and see "new life" bursting forth in our yard and talk about how "new life" is represented in Easter decorations through eggs, and little bunnies and chicks. Maia seems to really be understanding the most important "New Life" that we celebrate at Easter and what a joy it is to watch her grow in understanding of Jesus rising from the grave and the great hope that gives us. We had fun celebrating too. . .we dyed eggs, although this did turn into a lesson about dissection and the parts of a hard boiled egg as well as making hard boiled egg soup, we had a couple egg hunts, one with our dear little neighbor Tula and we even got to hold our neighbors new little chicks. . .what a treat! Gran and Poppi joined us for Easter this year which was a lot of fun. . .thanks for hanging out with us guys!
