He Arose!

"And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith." I Corinthians 15:14. As believers in Christ this is absolutely the most important reason to celebrate the hope we have, that not only did Christ die for our sins, but arose on the third day.

As with most children, my twin sister and I always looked forward to our annual Easter Egg hunt when we got home from church on Easter Sunday. Mom and Dad would hide a single red rose that represented Jesus (because he "a-rose") that was the "golden egg". I don't remember exactly what prize we got for finding the red rose, but I'm sure it was very exciting!

Since Jackson is not old enough to hunt Easter eggs, his GG sent us 3 red roses and a little boutonneire for our little man's first Easter. Next year we'll have fun hunting for the "golden egg"!
