Happy Easter!

We celebrated Easter at Aunt Carol's this weekend. During our Easter dinner, Maren & Adam (cousins) wouldn't eat their food and started telling Knock-Knock jokes like the night prior...

Aunt Carol: No Knock-Knock jokes until after dinner. Eat your food first.

Maren: But I don't want to eat.

Aunt Carol: Well you should. Easter is about eating.

Connor: And...Easter is about eggs!

Everyone: Yes Connor, you're right.

Connor: But really, Easter is about Jesus!

I was very proud of my little son...for bringing up a very important fact. Easter (like Christmas) gets lost in today's society, being marketed as a holiday about eggs and bunnies. When in fact, it truly is about Jesus. The fact that He died on the cross to save us from our sins and He is risen! That is the true meaning of Easter. Amen.
