Well, I took the kids on a 5 hour road trip to Minnesota BY MYSELF for Easter. I don't recommend traveling with a newborn and a 2 year old with no help. Needless to say, we made quite a few stops, and I can now recite the words to "A Bug's Life" movie just from listening to it for approximately 10 hours. We did okay though, and I'm glad we went! We spent some great time with my cousins, aunt and uncle, and mom and dad. My little lovies looked so adorable in their Easter garb.
On a more serious note, I've been overwhelmed with the though of how God gave his Son to us because I now know what it feels like to have a son, (and a daughter, just a child in general I guess.) I would sooner give my own life than my child's, but God sacrificed his ONLY child for us. I can't imagine the pain of seeing your child suffer and die the way that Jesus did especially knowing that many people wouldn't care or accept the gift, or even give it the time of day. Just one of the many things I'm learning as a parent. It's truly a gift. I am so thankful that the story had a happy ending and that myself, Nate and our little treasures have a risen savior.
LOVE YOU BUNNY LOVERS! So stinkin' cute..Come out her now JEN!! xoxoxo Wen

ReplyDeleteJenn, those Easter pictures are absolutely adorable...including you! Brady was so handsome for his first Easter. In regards to your serious comment...being a mom makes me feel more thankful than ever too, of the gifts God has given,(namely two healthy boys!) I am with you on that! Thanks for sharing from your heart of gold.
