The sun is shining and it is soo beautiful outside this Easter morning.
Carson & I are spending some quality bonding time together this weekend. We all went to our church's Good Friday Service Friday evening. Carson got sick in the car on the way home. I thought we were out of the woods from catching the GI bug Andrew got last weekend. Not so. We had plans to leave Sat. morning to go to Chad's parents for the weekend. So Chad and Andrew stuck with those plans while Carson & I stayed home. Carson was really sad not being able to go along to Grandma & Grandpa's. Carson did well yesterday...he played, ate ok but still occasionally complained of his stomach hurting. So we are home again this morning.
It seems so strange to be home on a Sunday morning, especially Easter Sunday. Carson crawled in bed with me this morning and declared "I want breakfast!". I smiled at him and began singing "Christ the Lord is risen today! Al-le-lu-ia!...." and then "Up from the grave he a-rose (he a-rose) with a mighty triumph o'er his foes! (He a-rose!)...." Carson smiled at me and I could tell he was thinking what has gotten into her? So we talked a little bit about Jesus dying on the cross for our sins and that today, Easter Sunday he arose. The tomb was empty. Carson said "And his body was gone." I replied yes. Carson said "But not his head." ?????
I will miss singing the wonderful Resurrection songs; maybe I will pull out the hymnal and Carson and I can have our own little service. I have an AM station on the radio broadcasting a church service...not quite the same as being there.
It also seems really strange to not be surrounded by family on Easter Sunday. I am definitely missing the fellowship, laughter, and egg cracking with wooden eggs made by my Grandpa Stuckey. :) Perhaps Carson & I will color some Easter eggs, something I meant to do with the boys during the past week but never got around to it.
Have a Blessed Easter!!
