We had a great Easter with Quinn and the McCauley family. It was so fun to get Q dolled up in her bright pink dress! She was full of smiles :)
Q's First Easter Basket
I have to admit, it is SO fun to get into the festivities of Easter with a baby...but it can easily detract from the real reason we celebrate Easter...Christ's resurrection. I feel like I am constantly pulling back from the materialism in our culture. It can be exhausting. Sometimes I just wish I lived on a farm without all of the distractions! It takes a lot of discipline to not get caught up in it all. My desire is to help Quinn grow to find joy in the real reason we celebrate Easter and not just in an Easter basket. I realize the only way to truely do this is by the example I set for her...which might mean by laying off some of the pastel colored M&M's haha...but seriously, why does chocolate seem to taste better in pastels?!
Hope you found joy in the real reason we celebrate Easter this weekend :)
