I have been so busy lately doing the things that need to get done that I have neglected other things. One of those things being Easter. I didn't get the girls dresses this year, new shoes or even an Easter basket of goodies. I'll be the first to admit that I am not super mom and just can't do it all on my own. Thankfully I have one terrific husband!
He went out and bought the girls things to go in the baskets that I already had in the attic. Those goodies included 2 wii games, steering wheel to go with one game, 3 movies and a bag of Starburst jelly beans each. They were so happy to get what they did and I made sure that Daddy got all of the credit for what they got.
As far as the dresses goes, they had plenty of springy dresses to chose from- ones they had not worn before- and wore sandals from last year. This is the first year that I know of that the girls have not worn matching dresses.
I am amazed at the fact that my girls have so much yet are not spoiled. They do not ask for much and are not too disappointed when they are told no, they can't have that right now. We have a couple of really great girls.
Last night, Rebecca and I came home while Jay and Em ran out to get dinner after church. Rebecca wrote Jay the sweetest Thank you card and gave him money to tithe on the stuff she and Emily received as Easter gifts.
I really do have a great family! I am blessed beyond measure!
