Easter Tide

Hello after a brief blogging hiatus! What a blessed Holy Week and Easter celebration we had. Here's a brief update of the latest...*We enjoyed wonderful time spent yesterday with our dear friends from the law community. How gracious our Lord has been to provide us with these amazing folks and what lasting friendships we've formed. The day was complete with a toddler Easter egg hunt followed by a picture of all the tykes together (even with the babies!) You can watch the progression as Little T's frown grew and grew until he lost himself in a pool of tears. Mama's heart surely melted. After the hunt, we enjoyed a delicious feast and stuffed ourselves silly amidst lively conversation and munchkins running to and fro. A couple of us pondered lives with families of five, maybe six children. Count me in (don't freak out yet, parents!) Our boys are the lights of our lives by far. Why not add more? No foreseeable announcements yet. :) *M and T had their first sibling brawl during Easter Mass yesterday morning when M stole a bottle on which T was chewing. There was no distracting the little fella, T went right after his brother, swatting and attempting to get back his treasure. Hello T? You are only 7-months-old! He is a fighter, no doubt. Just waiting until he reaches toddlerdom.

* Dear friends of ours here welcomed their newest daughter on Friday, 12 days early! What a precious surprise... Mother and baby are wonderful, albeit tired. We would so appreciate your prayers for this family as they grow in their newness.

*GG has been working on his appeal, due Friday. We ask for your continued prayers. Thank you.

*T has been enjoying time in the Johnny Jump-Up as of late. He just hangs, bounces, and smiles.

*And breaking news today from the driveway... M hopped! As his witness, I will vouch for two feet off the ground at the same time. You're experiencing history in the making, folks. M also immitated the doc today, saying "Good see you" when we took him in for an ear check-up. Too cute. He loves "Docta Doo."
