It's our little grandson's first Easter! He was a brave boy to sit on the Easter Bunny's lap for this photo, but as you can see he kept his eyes on his mother to make sure she wasn't going anywhere!
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead... "1 Peter 1:3
A Prayer of Illumination for Easter
by Mark Roeda
Lord God,
Your Word is life;
we are merely punctuation.
Do not allow apathy to ball us up into periods,
Or skepticism to bend us into a question marks.
Instead, as with Mary at the tomb,
As with Thomas in the locked room,
May an encounter with your gospel
Stretch us into holy exclamation points
Giving you glory and praise.
In Jesus’ name, the Word made flesh.
Amen
I wish you all a very happy and Blessed Easter!

Hello Pat, a beautiful prayer to share. Leo is adorable on the Easter Bunny's lap. Most babies would be crying and scared too.

Hi Pat,
Happy Easter - Leo is adorable! I thank you for your blog. I'm from Long Island, but now live in PA. Whenever I stop by your blog, it brings back nice memories of NYC.
Thank you!

Pat, I adore little Leo's picture! Look at how bright he looks, and even though he's looking for his mama, he looks like he's having a blast!
And I loved your Easter message. Hoping you and yours have the loveliest of Easters, Pat. We are spending the day with friends and their young kids and grandkids. Should be fun!
Love to you...

Such a lovely Easter Bunny - Leo I mean!
What joy!
That is an adorable little bunny that you have for a grandson! Hope his first Easter was full of happiness and fun!
Little Leo looks precious in his first Easter picture!
I can't believe he wasn't scared, that some big bunny!! He's precious!
Thank you for this dear post. Makes me a little teary, grateful for likened-hearts. How dear the photo of your grandson. And the poem hits home.
Now that is cute! Most children would scream their heads off, if asked to sit with a giant rabbit! What a good little boy he is. x
Handsome little Leo is growing up so fast. I went looking for a photo of him as I have followed since his birth. My very first grandchild - a girl - is due any day now! What a joyous time.
Little Leo is soooooo precious perched on E. Bunny's furry lap!! What a wonderful photo!! My little gr.girl (almost 3) is still iffy about that big rabbit---and she KNOWS how crazy I am about one rabbit in particular! Dana
