Happy Easter!

On Easter Sunday, Finn woke up and was thrilled to find his an Easter basket and eggs hidden around the house by the Easter bunny. He was so happy to find each egg and exclaimed with delight, "Mama, I found a blue one" and "Mama, I found a yellow" and so on. He doesn't rush to find all the eggs either. He carefully gets each one and opens it. It was difficult to convince him that he had to save some of the treats for later. After the egg hunt, we enjoyed blueberry pancakes and then a beautiful spring walk with Lily. Then, we all donned our Sunday best to head to church. We were in the best of moods and even Finn was very excited about going, and we were very proud of ourselves for getting everything together and getting out the door on time. When we drove into Concord, we were happily striding to the church, only to be stopped by a sign noting that Easter service was at 9am rather than the usual 10am thus despite all our efforts, we were actually an hour late! Then, we felt too guilty to skip the service and attend the egg hut, so we ended up walking to a little rock garden in the middle of down town and playing for a while before heading to lunch. In the end, it was still a wonderful day and we enjoyed our time as a family of three. I am finding it important to enjoy these days as we anticipate our growing family.
