Palm Sunday

First United Methodist does a wonderful job of protraying Christ's entry into Jerusalem the week before his death and resurrection. We waved palm leaves and sang "Hosanna!" as someone rode the donkey through the courtyard of the Church in the reinactment.

This has alway been my favorite week of the year. As we prepare for Easter Sunday, I'm constantly reminded of what Jesus did for us. Now as a parent - and being human - I truly cannot understand what God felt when His Son was nailed to the cross. This is such an amazing time for us as Christians (and as parents).

After the Palm Sunday service, we gathered with our Sunday school class for an Easter egg hunt for the children. Since we had so much rain Sunday morning, we had to move the hunt indoors to the gym. All Henry wanted to do was pick up an egg, stick it in his mouth, then throw it! Needless to say, he enjoyed himself.

Happy Easter week!
