EGGS, EGGS and more EGGS
It's that time of year... Egg season (and wabbit season). How many ways can you eat eggs? I think one day I'm going to sit down and count. I love eggs, all kinds. Everywhere you look there are eggs, chocolate, hard boiled, colored, hand painted, paper, plastic, ect. When I see all the colored eggs it makes me smile. I think of all the Easter eggs I have dyed for my kids over the years. The look on their faces when they could go and find them, priceless. I think we need to have a giant egg hunt for adults. I always enjoyed hunting for the eggs and I know the kid in me now would be so happy to go on an Easter egg hunt. I keep telling my husband and kids, wouldn't it be cool to have chickens and a chicken coop out back, then we could have eggs anytime we want. Unfortunately they aren't buying it. I don't think my development would allow it anyway :( As many eggs as we go through in a week, and how high the prices are getting in the stores having our own chickens would be so worth it. Back to eggs because today is the letter E and chicken does not start with E,(but it does have an E in it). Sunday is Easter and even though my kids are a little older I still dye eggs for them and they go out and find them and some help the younger ones to find the hard to find ones. I love Easter and what it means to my family. Not just the Easter bunny, eggs and candy, but the traditions that remind us of why we celebrate it. I am grateful for The Atonement and The Resurrection and the importance of it in my life. I am so happy that I am sealed to my family for all time and Eternity (oh look another E word). I love you guys. Happy Easter!
