Or more importantly, Thank You Jesus (for your sacrifice). I know I don't get very deep or personal on this blog, but why not?? It's my blog, if you don't like it, don't read it ( I guess that message is for the two people, besides myself, who actually do :) Anyways, I always try to make sure the girls know the real meaning of big holidays. We can't have them running around thinking it is all about them and candy and presents and santa and bunnies, seriously!! I have this really cool Easter book (thanks Grandma and Papa) that explains a lot. We read it the other night, and Madilyn had a lot of questions. Bella, at this point, was already passed out (sugar crash? I think so).
Madilyn: "I don't get it".
Me: "When we sin, which is what it is called when we do bad things like not listening to mommy or fighting with our sister or telling a lie, the punishment is death. Jesus died on the cross so we didn't have to, and if we love Jesus and ask him to forgive us, we get to go to Heaven"!!
Madilyn: (with eyes wide)"You mean Jesus got killed"?!
Me: "He did but after 3 days he was alive again to watch over us and he went back to heaven to be with God".
Madilyn: "Oh my gosh". (she then gets sidetracked and yells something) "Oh no"! ( she now puts her head down and crosses her hands and begins praying frantically and saying she is sorry)
Me: I hope some of that got through, especially the part about the punishment for fighting with your sister is death :)

On to shallower things. We had some fun on the day before Easter, illegally I might add!! We went with some friends to their HOA sponsered egg hunt. It was really fun and the girls had a blast. Some of the pics are above.
