Secular Easter

The easiest way to dye eggs is just put food coloring on paper towels and start rolling. It was so quick and easy that I was a bit disappointed at how quick we dyed all our eggs.

We went on Easter egg hunts. Three. One to Joe’s work, one at our own house, and one at Grandma’s.

There were tears shed, smiles found and candy. I enjoy small toys and confetti in the eggs rather than just candy.

Soccer, music time for the little kids, and regular play rounded out our days.

I was able to spend some needed time in worship. Friday night I went to a temple session, and Saturday was the General Women’s Session at church. Visiting at the Easter egg hunt and after the conference session helped me overcome my isolation that I had been feeling.

The temple session and conference helped me see where I could add service back into my life. In the past I’ve been praying for inspiration and opportunities to serve, and I would add the inspiration I felt to my to-do list and made sure I followed through. I stopped because I was discouraged over several events that happened. I want to go back to doing it. God know who I can help and what I need to do in my life, and I am happier when I follow him.
