Easter Time

Image Jane Means

Whether you're:

  • gathering family & friends around the table

  • falling asleep in the sun

  • holding hands with your darling at the movies

  • wandering around the local Garden Centre & then planting up new beds

  • getting teary watching an Easter bride walk toward her beloved

  • watching the children hunt excitedly for their Easter eggs

  • totally immersed in the pages of a wonderful new book

  • tackling the renovation project that can't wait any longer

  • or rejoicing in the light that streams through the church windows on Easter Sunday morning

..... may this weekend bring you happiness & joy in all that you do.

    You know, I've never really decorated for Easter since my daughters grew up. I suppose because I don't have pastel items for decor. I wish I could see more with vibrant colors such as red and such. Happy Easter to you as well.
