What an Easter Egg Hunt Teaches

So my glasses have been missing for at least a month. I last saw them on my desk. I need to wear them everyday, but I don't which is why I didn't immediately get annoyed by the loss of them. I figured they would turn up and looked in all the nooks in crannies over the last month. I opened every glass case in our house finding pairs we never knew we had. David now has about three back up pairs! Lately my annoyance level has increased because well I pretty much can't see very well. So I decided I was going to have to buy some new glasses. This morning I went on one last hunt and thought since I last saw them on my desk, I'd look there again...on, in, under, etc. I ended up finding them under my desk tangled up in the power cords from the computer. When Wyatt saw my excitement, he said, "oh, I put those there." I asked why he hid my glasses and he said, "It was easter, so I hid them!"
Alas...I can see again!

f.y.i.

...should you be requesting his presence for this Saturday, Wyatt has informed me he will be busy building a tower for his friend Hampton.

The Bunnies on Easter

Here are a few pics from our Easter celebration with our family. I will have to post more once I figure out how to get them off my phone! We dyed our eggs on Saturday morning and made sugar cookies Saturday evening. Sunday we went to church and then over to my aunt's house. Two thirds of the brood napped and then we had our egg hunt, dyed more eggs, and opened Easter baskets! We had a great time celebrating our Risen Lord!

The Man

Yesterday, David stayed home with the kids for the morning so I could have some "alone time". It's a funny concept. We had been in a habit of trying to get me out of the house for a few hours a week away from the kids so I could recoup a bit. We just fell out of the habit and a few months down the road I started to begin feeling a little cookoo. I can't describe it very well but it dawned on me on Sunday morning before we left for church that I had this frantic feeling of just needing five minutes without hearing a request from someone. Ha ha ha. So we put it back on the calendar and what do you know...it was wonderful and refreshing. I came home and David had done the dishes and folded and put away three loads of laundry! I was never unsure before this point but wow...this man's a keeper!

missed calling...

i was at the mall the other day and saw a sign. david and i were shopping at south coast plaza (kind of a snooty mall around here) because it's the closest mall with a few stores we wanted to stop in to and came across a casting call...
