Wow, it’s amazing how fast the time seems to go by anymore.  I’d like to wish my DH a Happy 55 birthday today.  It’s amazing how much a few years can change.  Back during the traveling days, couldn’t wait for this day to come so that we could buy into one of the retirement villages in FL.  The plan was to have a permant place there and leave the home on wheels in Illinois where the family is.  Health issues have put a big red STOP on all that.  Although I haven’t given up complete hope on that dream, it’s just being delayed.

I woke up not feeling well, my asthma and allergies are terrible and my back is screaming, it was a ruff night.  I spent my entire Easter day in bed!  I talked to the grand daughter and she sent me pictures of her and her brother enjoying the day.  They went to see their great grandma (DH mom)

They both love the woods like their Papa, Daddy & Uncle Gabe! Daddy took them mushroom hunting but they found something even better!

They ran onto a family of Turtles & get their love of animals from Grammy

While many of us take for granted the pleasures we get to spend special holidays with our families there are others that are serving our country and away from theirs.  During this time of uncertainness with so many horrific things happening around the world, I pray & ask God to watch over our military and place his guarding shield around them, so that one day they can return home and be with family that misses them.  I wanted to post a special reminder that is deep in my heart …..

We celebrated the Easter Bunny when my boys were little, but I also taught them the true meaning of why the Easter Bunny brings gift baskets.  The real reason we celebrate this glorious day is it represents Jesus Christ dying on the Cross and rising from the dead, he did so to pay the price that none of us could possibly do, he paid for our sins, so that if we believe and accept him as our Savior we can have everlasting eternal life.  There is no great gift any of us can receive.

So even though I didn’t feel the greatest, I am still thankful, blessed  & Rejoice that God sent his son to endure torture, death and shed his blood for me & after all that he is Risen!

A honey brown sugar spiral ham was placed in the oven & ham sandwich is what was for dinner.  Since I wasn’t feeling well, eating wasn’t big on the list either.  My day was spent curled up in bed between napping & watching Hallmark.  So from my home & heart to yours …
