Late I know!
We had a house full for Easter, nearly bursting at the seams.
Rachel and Hayden were here & is that boy ever growing! The move to S.C. has been great as far as school goes. The special needs classes are focused on education with skill building not just warehousing & boy howdy does it show! The classes seem to focus on the needs and enhancing the abilities of each individual child not the typical “lets learn this song” we’d seen before.
Friday night we had taco’s, I know, it should have been fish but Haden asked for Tacos so….what could I do but say yes!
Erika and her 3 Isaiah, Evie & Alix filled the sleeper sofa and a pallet …our BIL Mike took Isaiah’s room. (I’m so thankful for the second bathroom!)
After services we shared a big breakfast and the boys played hard enough they put themselves down for a rest!
It was fun to listen and watch them play, I would see the bits of my children’s personalities that had filtered down to their children
Supper was shared as a pitch-in with with Mr.Fix-Its family. Our contribution was a large crock pot of mashed potato’s. 10 pound potato’s were pealed and boiling quickly with 3 of us working together…..LOOK WHAT we found inside one potato!
Those subtle reminders of grace ….from a simple man who gave all on the cross
Hope your Easter was as blessed as ours

ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you and yours.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great family get together. Mashed potatoes, my favorite. I love the cross found inside your potato, gentle reminders of grace :-)
