Easter was amazing. We went to one of our favorite places on earth - Edgar's grandfather's. It is smack-dab in the middle of the country and is the most peaceful place in the world. The kids ran around all weekend in the freedom of the farm. It was just a wonderfully peaceful weekend reminding us of how blessed we are.
This week I am on spring break. I am so glad. I needed a break! The kids did too. Today we are going to the gym and then will just stay here the rest of the day. Tomorrow Addison and Jack both have school so Mommy will get a little time to herself! Yippeee!!!
Easter always reminds me of how much I have been given - I need to try to focus on those blessings each and every day - even the days that are frustrating ;-) I pray everyone has a wonderful week!

Jack's Trip to the ER
I have been so lucky never to have rushed either of my kids to the ER, until yesterday. Addison had a trip to the hospital before, but they sent us from her doctor, so I have never had to pack everything up and go to the ER.....
Last night I was getting ready to go to Meredith's and Andy's for dinner and Jack fell. Literally within a minute, an area of his head was as big as a baseball. So I freaked out. I was not made to be a trama nurse. I yelled at Addison to get shoes on, called the neighbor to come get her, and ran out of the door with a screaming Jack. We were at the ER in no time. Poor little guy, they said nothing was wrong with him, but it just really shook him up. Today he has a big knot and a cut on his little head.
I guess I shouldn't say things like, "I haven't had to take my kids to the ER" because just days later, look what happens! And instead of a yummy dinner at Mer's, we ended up with soup from a can when we got home at 9pm. Sigh..........The things you give up for kiddies!
I pray everyone has a wonderfully happy Easter full of gracious thanksgiving!
