We enjoyed a beautiful Easter weekend, with visits from Husby's brother and his wife Saturday night, and then Easter dinner here at home with his dad, whom the babies call Boppa.
The bunny brought yummy chocolates and hid eggs filled with coins in the backyard. The children looked very pretty in their Easter finery. Mass was too crowded. Sigh. I suppose we ought to be grateful for anyone who makes an appearance for Mass, but why double the crowds twice a year?
The big wedding is this coming weekend, and I am still hoping for no tuxes, though I don't believe that Miracle will be happening. I reflected a bit this weekend about our Catholic school situation, and I have come to a conclusion that this traditional pastor really only impacts my son and my family as much as we allow him to do so. "The receiver receives in the manner s/he receives." In other words, people are only as powerful as we allow them to be. For now, I think, we'll be leaving Kindergarten Boy where he is. I'll keep you posted when and if I change my mind -- AGAIN.
We're off to the Botanical Gardens this morning. The Butterfly Exhibit here is the best I have ever seen. Thousands! It's so cool. We're bringing a picnic lunch, too. And trying to hide the chocolate so we can make it last more than 36 hours.
