HAPPY EASTER!

I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very HAPPY EASTER.
Easter is a holdiay that touches my heart more than most because of the reason we celebrate it.
To think of the sacrifice that Jesus made for me fills me with an undescribable emotion. It breaks my heart to think of the beatings that he took for me and the cruelty of his death. At the same time I am forever grateful that he made that sacrifice so that I may have eternal life.
I hope that everyone takes the time to celebrate Jesus' Resurection on this Easter Sunday and to say a prayer thanking Jesus for what he did for us. I also want to remember our soldiers that are fighting and cannot be with their families this Easter. They too are making sacrifices willingly to protect our freedom. And please say a prayer for the families that have lost loved ones in this time of war. They too have made sacrifices that I cannot ever repay.
My Easter is filled with my family after church. We have a ritual ham dinner with all the trimmings. Then we hide eggs for the kids to hunt. Then the kids hide the eggs and we have to find them. I love this time spent with my family. The kids are so proud when we can't find their eggs.
I hope everyone has a very Blessed Easter. Take the time to count your blessings and may God Bless you all. HAPPY EASTER, Valerie
