Empty tomb rolls

I held off on starting breakfast until the kids were up and could help me assemble it.

We dipped marshmallows in butter and cinnamon as though anointing with oil and preparing the body with spices.

rolled them in crescent rolls as though in a shroud

Then we dipped them in butter and cinnamon a second time

We baked them while we got dressed and, voila!

The tomb is empty.

Palm Sunday

The kids joined the choir (really – the choir is there) to sing for Palm Sunday.  While I won’t pretend Katriel had a clue what the words are I can promise you she was having a delightful time participating in worship.

Ophthalmology update

Hanny got the good news she is back to just two hours a day of patching AND she gets new lenses with a weaker prescription.  YAY left eye!  Keep up the good work.

FINALLY–We celebrated Katriel’s birthday

Having gotten ill on the day that we had first planned for her party, we finally had the opportunity to celebrate with many of her friends on April 1st. 

These sweet little ones played a few games, dined on chicken nuggets & fruit, and opened gifts.

As she opened gifts she “read” the cards.  They mostly said the pretty close to the same thing: “Happy birthday Katriel.  We are friends.  I love you, and you love me, and Jesus loves us.”  Winking smile
