A lot of people rise early on Easter Sunday for a special service. Anna got up around 10:00 on Saturday night-- but not for a worship service. Her tummy didn't agree with her dinner and we were up all night long cleaning out her system. Not the way I had imagined my Easter Sunday but we still had time to remember and celebrate the resurrection a little together and remember our hope in Christ.
We were planning to go early to church for breakfast and then attend the service. Instead, Anna and I stayed home (and Luke who napped) while the others went. When they got home we gave them small Easter baskets with a little candy and a 'prize' thing. Anna got a wallet, Jack got a forklift that someone sent home with Derek from work and Leah got her very own school bag/marker set so she can be like the big kids.
Luke got candy and he loved it. There were probably 5 or 6 Hershey Kisses in there and he recognized them and downed them as fast as he could get them open. He kept looking around at us like he was wondering if we knew he had all that candy and if we were going to stop him. He was focused.
