Saying Goodbye is Hard

I sure have enjoyed this year being able to watch a boy my sons age.  It is so hard to say good bye when you can see a strong bond and true friendship in these two boys.   I feel the same way for my daughter.  I am thankful she is excited for the move but she has some great girl friends at the young age of 5.   I think it might be me who is having a harder time with this then my children. I am thankful they are young and I know they will make some new friends quickly.  It might be such a challenge for me because I grew up in the exact same house my entire life unlike my husband who moved around all the time.  Only two more weeks of Wisconsin and then its Iowa time.  Please continue to pray for our transition as you can tell it is sad and hard but exciting and thrilling all at the same time.  

Sharing that JESUS is RISEN- You've been EGGED

Today the kids and I took a walk and handed out three Easter baskets with a great little message and an invitation to our church for Easter.   Thanks Fab n Free for the free printable.  My husband did change the printable into one that we could leave in a basket instead of hiding eggs in some strangers yard.   We moved to our neighborhood about a year ago and sadly we still do not know many neighbors.  So we said a prayer before we left and we had fun leaving some baskets for some neighbors.   The main idea that comes across on the sheet is "JESUS IS RISEN."  The wording on the sheet said, "You've been EGGED, there are 12 eggs in this basket but don't get discouraged when you find the empty egg because it's a simple reminder that Jesus' tomb is empty for HE IS RISEN.   Happy Easter"   This was such a simple way to share our Faith!  I encourage each of you to find simple yet practical ways to share the Love of Christ...
