Easter

I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth:
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell;
the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into Heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost;
the holy catholic Church
the communion of saints
the forgiveness of sins
the resurrection of the body
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

With Kevin away in India, Ivy and I celebrated her first Easter with family in Beaumont. Ham, cheese potatoes, beautiful music, chocolate bunnies, mod podged eggs, peach cobbler and sunshine were enjoyed by all. It was a blessed occassion. Hopefully next year, we will get to teach Ivy the significance of this holiday. For now, she's pretty happy with the straw.
