Happy Easter!

My Easter break flew by, although it felt so slow when it was happening because of the work I had to do, and of the play I had to fore go.
I kept giving myself those adult-talks,like, "you don't have to have a vacation right now. You had a couple of days with the kids, and you should be grateful for time off so that you can get this other stuff done. You do get summer off, you know."
I seemed to really need a lot of those talks. I seemed to be a little whiny and low on self motivation.
I got stuff done. To be honest, I feel a traitor to the name of my blog. Any thanks I gave during it seemed without any soul.
I did have a great time with the kids in Sea World. And it was so adorable seeing my grand babies watch their first movie in the theatre!
The other favorite thing was doing stuff with Sarah. It was great getting Easter stuff ready with her, and going with her, Josh and Lisa to lunch at Cafe Aroma's. A really nice time. It was a memory making little event walking around that little pond I've always wanted to stop at: Lake Fulmore, with Lucy, Jackie, and Sarah. That water is amazingly serene. Like a mirror, mountain blending into mountain, tree into tree. And even shafts of light touching at the water's surface, trying to trick you into thinking that both are real. Or are they?
I remember thinking, but held back, or maybe it came out, OH, THE GLORY!
Even baby Jack clapped his hands when he looked out on that view!
And having the kids with me for the Easter service, well, that's heaven!!
THANKS so much for coming down, Sarah and Josh!!!
That's funny...just blogging about the good stuff cheered me up!
What does it say, "...Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of GOOD report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy- meditate on these things." Philippians 4:8
