Easter

Lunch or Dinner?  Ham or Lamb?  China or disposable?  Big table or in front of the television?  I am hosting the Haack Family feast this year.  I love having the holiday celebrations at our home.  The view is great.  We have the space.  Tim is a great cook and I like to fuss with the table scape and napkins.  Now the Lucy is older she will enjoy an Easter Egg hunt and I will put Uncle Cody in charge of hiding items in the yard and delight in her squeals as she finds things.  Brand new.  Exciting.  I love Easter.  Celebrating rebirth in life and nature is a gift.  The flowers are blooming, the trees are green with new growth, the grass is green, the lake is full of swans and pelicans...I am truly blessed.  I have had the opportunity to "repent" and "start over" many times in my life and as Christians we celebrate the gift of Christ. We leave our mistakes in the past and move forward with new conviction, goals and course correction.  I love my husband and the bond we have and the gift he is in my life.  I love him for the guidance he has given me through the years to be a better me and to do the right thing.  My life's journey changed when I met him and I celebrate that new beginning this Easter.
