Alleluia! He is risen!
The children awoke to hidden eggs,
new summer sun hats,
and a few baby Schleich animals.
They were dressed for church by 8 a.m.
(Mass is at 10!)
And while church wasn't our best outing of Holy Week, who doesn't enjoy a little Alle, Alle, Alleluia! after forty long days of penance?
Also crazy: Peter and Lucy decided they didn't like the sea salt/turbinado sugar/dark chocolate covered almonds I put in their eggs. What? Monday they sang a different tune, however, when Peter asked to try one again. I commented, "they have your favorite salt inside," and that sent Peter dashing to Lucy, crying, "Lucy, these chocolates have SEA SALT inside." Later I asked Kevin, "at three and four, would you have known about different salts? Let alone have a favorite?"
