Easter fun...


Kathryn rose this morning before the Easter Bunny had made it back to...(wait, where the heck does the Easter Bunny live?)...due to her rising excitement over giving the other kids their gift baskets. A few weeks ago, she began asking for chores she could do that would be in addition to the normal stuff in hopes of earning some money. She made the most adorable little baskets for everyone in the house...a little nurturer-at-heart, who shows her affection not by giving gifts, but by thinking of you, planning, and getting excited to catch you off guard, and make you feel loved. She shops on her own, and has the most creative little ideas and an eye for it. I'm not sure I can compare it to Jesus turning water into wine, but she does make a little Dove chocolate egg into an overwhelming expression of love...

As I type this, Joe sneezes and only half gets his elbow over his mouth/nose....she's too close to him, playing XBox360 together...and she's yelling at him to "Cover!!! What was THAT?? You didn't even TRY to cover?!!!" and he's explaining it was a sneak-attack sneeze..."I was trying to, KATH!". I guess the miracle of no fighting hasn't fallen over our house yet! And what is this mid-40's and windy garbage???

She is such a thoughtful kid... It will be fun to see her grow into young womanhood.
