A Note from the Easter Bunny...

Blessed Easter! 


We woke up this morning to this note from the Easter Bunny:

I had a thought

As I was on my way

About why Easter is really

Resurrection Day

About what’s really important,

About what Jesus said,

About his death on the cross,

And how he rose from the dead.

Chocolate and jelly beans

Are really yummy,

But what about putting food

In an empty tummy?

Or helping others

Learn about our Savior?

So now I’m wondering

Can you do me a favor?

Can you use what I left

To help do some good

For those in need

in your neighborhood

and at your church?

That would be great!

I’ve got to go

I’m running late

But one last note

Before I’m through:

There’s one treat each

For each of you!


We went out to the back yard to hunt for Easter eggs, and were greeted by three deer in the woods overlooking our house. After gathering eggs and putting together the clues, the children discovered a bounty of Easter gifts.

Food for the food bank and quarters for Calumet!

The kids each got a chocolate cross - except for Coren, who got Hanukkah gelt. Apparently "The EB," as he signed his note, couldn't find gluten-free/dairy-free chocolate crosses and found gelt an acceptable replacement. The EB is certainly a strange individual. Coren, pictured below, made his First Communion at Easter Vigil worship last night, so we have a little something extra to celebrate today! Blessed Easter!
