Palm Sunday

Today was a weird Sunday for me. It was Palm Sunday and April Fool's Day, not necessarily a harmonious combo!

Yesterday, the boy's and I (Es was at a friend's house for a sleep over) were watching a cartoon movie about Jesus' Crucifixion (non bloody and totally for kids!) and I started crying. I totally couldn't stop myself. It was just another reminder that Jesus gave all, and God thought of it! AMAZING!

On a lighter note, Ben and the kids and I witnessed 3 of my nieces' baptisms yesterday (Saturday). It was touching and fun. My nieces are all in the same family and they live about 45min. away. We had good family time on the way there and back.

We invented this car game (sometimes I wonder if it's desperation or stupidity or just plain exhaustion when I come up with certain ideas!). One person would choose a random word and the rest would explain what that word brought to mind. For example, Ben chose the word 'bright'. The first thing I thought of was a smile. Es thought of sunshine. It was fun! I felt like I learned more about how my kids ticked.

I pray the peace of God rests with you today. HAPPY DAY!

We've played similar games to that, it's totally fun!! It's amazing what you come up with on road trips. ~Tina
