getting ready for Easter

Jackson has been anxiously waiting to hunt for eggs. We missed the neighborhood egg hunt due to sickness, but made the community one today. We got Hannah her own basket, and Jackson decided to give her all of his eggs that were pink, purple, or yellow. So sweet!







Later today and tomorrow we are dying eggs with daddy, making Resurrection Rolls, and some jello eggs too. Jackson has been a huge help to me in getting ready for church on Sunday by stuffing and counting eggs for the egg hunt there.
All of this is fun, but the most important preparation for Easter is the one we do in our hearts. Jackson understands even more about Jesus' death and resurrection and can tell me the story all by himself. He loves to do the Resurrection Eggs.
Praying that you all can pause and reflect on the most amazing gift of love God could offer you - the gift of His Son. May his love be ALIVE in you this Easter and always!
