Happy Easter

We have had a great Easter weekend! Mamaw and PawPaw came for a visit and brought Eve's Easter dress. Mamaw certainly outdid herself on the lavender creation... as usual. Yesterday we had fun at the egg hunt at church. Eve and Zak found lots of eggs. This morning Eve was surprised to see that the Easter bunny had come. Her favorite gift was the big lolli-pop. After church we finished the festivities by having lunch with Grammy and Grandad. We hope your holiday was just as blessed as ours!!

How would you reach the moon?

One Wednesday night a couple of weeks ago we were on our way home from church when we had this conversation.
Eve: Mommy, I see the moon up in the sky!
Me: Yeah! Me, too!
Eve: I want to go up to the moon. But, how can we get there?
Me: Well, we can't. You have to go in a rocket to get to the moon. Only astronauts can fly to the moon. Do you want to be an astronaut when you grow up?
Eve: No.
Me: Yeah, I think you would make a good teacher.
Jay: Or doctor or lawyer.
Me: Or actress! What do you want to be when you grow up, Eve?
Eve: (pause to think) Um, I fink I'll be a tree.
Me: (trying to stifle my giggles) Well, that would be nice.
Jay: Who made the trees?
Eve: God.
Me: What would you do if you were a tree?
Eve: Reach up to the sky!
Thus Eve proved you don't have to be an astronaut to reach up to the moon.
