This year for Easter I did some real reflecting on the Savior and I am very grateful for Easter. A month before Easter Nathan told me that we could get candy but no real big presents. Now I'm someone who really likes presents, I just do. So we agreed to just get Lilly a new dress and some candy. I'm very grateful for Nathan b/c it made me realize how sometimes we think to much about the gifts and not so much about what Easter is really about. Its not about a bunny or eggs, its about Christ.
It was my turn in primary to give sharing time on Sunday. I really pondered on what I should do b/c I really wanted the kids to think about what the Savior did for us all. I ended up having the kids look up the crucifiction and talk about it and the resurrection. I am so grateful for the Sacrifice he made so we could be with our Loved ones again someday. I am also very grateful for the opportunity that I had in do sharing time for primary and the increase in my testimony.
We also had some fun. We went to a easter egg hunt at my mom's friends house. Lilly thought it was so much fun getting these easter eggs and then finding prizes inside. Then lilly got a new Sunday dress for church. We had a great easter dinner with my family. It was a great day to think about the Savior.
