Dear Lord, it's such a hectic day
With little time to stop and pray
For life's been anything but calm
Since You called on me to be a mom
Running errands, matching socks
Building dreams with building blocks
Cooking, cleaning, and finding shoes
And other stuff that children lose
Fitting lids on bottled bugs
Wiping tears and giving hugs
A stack of last weeks mail to read
So where's the quiet time I need?
Yet when I steal a minute, Lord
Just at the sink or ironing board
To ask the blessings of Your grace
I see then, in my small one's face
That you have blessed me
All the while
And I stop to kiss
That precious smile

Easter Sunday

My cute matching boys. I started looking for matching outfits a little late and I guess all the ties etc. were gone. They sure had a lot of cute easter dresses... Oh well, I think they still look pretty cute in the matching shirts. :)

















Grandma set up an Easter egg hunt. Hayden had so much fun and Xander even found a few! Okay, okay, he might have had a little help.

Gloria made us all Easter cakes with our names on them. I didn't get a picture of the others because we ate them too fast.


Again so many cute pictures but I'm going to stop there and say it was a fun Easter. I'm so grateful for the true meaning of Easter and although the pictures don't show it, we did try to focus on the Savior during Easter Sunday. What a special day to remember him and thank him for his sacrifice for us.

Easter Saturday

Okay, so I have a lot of Easter pictures. So here are a few cute Saturday ones. :) I don't want to bore you with all the others. ;)

Aunt Brittany came over for some of the Easter festivities.

Hugs for the Easter Bunny (This picture is funny to me because I was terrified of the Easter bunny that looked like this when I was little.)

Look what Hayden found. :)

Me and Scaredy Squirrel

I really like the Scaredy Squirrel series. I was excited to see a new addition to the series. Scaredy Squirrel at Night. I grabbed it from the library yesterday and it cracked me up. Maybe it is because I'm feeling a lot like Scaredy Squirrel right now. :)



You have to go grab this book, especially all you sleep deprived moms. :)



I have tons of Easter pictures so I will try to get them sorted through and posted. Kids make holidays so much fun. :)
