Easter Egg Hunts


Today Joshua finally got to go on two Easter Egg Hunts. We've been hiding last year's plastic eggs around the house for the past week and finding them -- a fun game -- but getting eggs full of candy is even more fun. This morning Joshua started with an egg hunt at our mobile home park. Due to the rain the hunt was done inside the club house. Thanks to the ladies who put on this special event for the kids in our neighborhood.

Then we headed to our local San Juan park where they were having an Eggstravaganza! That egg hunt was more like an egg gather. A section of the park was roped off and the eggs were strewn around on the grass. On the count of three the kids ran through and had every egg picked up in less than 90 seconds. Joshua enjoyed both and is now sorting his candy and other goodies.

Jon continues to be swamped with work. He was able to call us this morning, since Joshua and I will be attending the 8:00 a.m. service and didn't want to miss his call tomorrow. It is always great to hear his voice. Also, thanks to the gift of a digital camera that Jon received, he has been able to e-mail me a short video clip of himself. Very cool, although it made me cry to see and hear him (in miniature) on my computer screen but not to be able to touch or be with him. But I am very blessed.

Have a glorious Easter,

Sheryl
