"He is Risen; he is not here." Mark 16:6

 

"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die."
John 11:25-26

 

 

All week long at school, Holden has been coloring and painting pictures of Jesus and telling us through his crafts the story of Easter.  I love that not only do we get to read and share these stories with him at home, but that he also hears of Jesus' love for us throughout the day.  We are very fortunate to have found such a wonderful and loving school for our little man.

 

Holden has had a busy week.  We started "practice" egg hunts in the yard this past weekend, he had his Easter Egg hunt and celebration at school on Thursday, work up at the crack of dawn this morning so he could see what the "e bunny" brought him, church and then Easter lunch, another basket of goodies and another egg hunt at Grammy and G-Pa's.  It's no wonder he crashed in the car on the way home today, too bad he decided that the 30 minute cat nap he took on the way home was enough, cause Mommy and Daddy sure could have used a little snooze.  But, instead, we have been hiding eggs again, we have colored in the new book the Easter bunny brought him, we're opening all his eggs and seeing what's inside (I took all the goodies out and put them up in the snack bowl, which he already ever gets), but he knows that they had goodies in them this morning and wants Mommy to put them back.  The cycle continues.

Reading with mommy while the "Easter" bunny hides the eggs

On a mission.

Oh, here's one in the bushes.

Checking out his loot

It's too bright Mommy!

It's time to put the Easter eggs and baskets up til next year.........of course that's once Holden decides that he's done hunting for the year.  Until then, we'll keep hiding the same eggs over and over and over.
