Happy Easter. 


     As an older generation we remember Easter's from decades ago. I will never forget the tight dress shoes, the fancy dress and of course my Easter bonnet. Oh yes, the white gloves as well. When all the females dressed to the nines and the little men sported their first "suits". 

     Things have changed and yet remained the same. Easter eggs still hold a delight for small children. Easter baskets still bring small toys and sweet candy. Decorating eggs is a wonderful treat for grandparents to share with their grandchildren. After all we've been perfecting that art for many years!

     At six years old I can't imagine dressing my granddaughter in white gloves or an Easter bonnet. We did pick up an inexpensive outfit at the dollar store for her though. She looks like a cutie pie in it and we will be getting many pics of her!

     For some celebrating Easter would not be complete without telling the story of Jesus' resurrection. Sharing an Easter drama at church with their grandchildren. Or reading the story of the Hope of Life. 

     However your family celebrates this holiday I want to wish each of you the best day ever! May your joy be abundant, may your happiness overflow and most of all may you see life in the eyes of your grandchild!
