I got to celebrate Easter early with my beautiful children.....they will be leaving on vacation with their daddy and will be gone on Easter Sunday. I'm uncertain why the schools schedules the beginning of Spring Break on Easter....but it really stinks! However, I had the kids all to myself on Sunday so we had a wonderful time. When they arrived, the eggs were hidden, the surprises were ready and we got to go to their favorite place for lunch. They loved the entire day as much as I did watching the pure joy explode from their little souls. Trayjan had a ball with his new paintball gun and Jie loved her new little laptop. The cutests was their new stuffed pet ducks. They both named them the cutest names. Trayjan's was Ducker McQuakercans and Jie's was Quack Quack. She has carried that big yellow duck everywhere since she got it, she calls it her baby Quack Quack. What a beautiful, fun day we had. It allows us to reflect on the meaning of Easter.....all of this is possible because of our Lord Jesus Christ. He loves us so much and that love gives us strength each and everyday to be the people we are and share the gifts we have been so fortunate to receive.
1 Corinthians 13:13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Happy St. Patricks Day
Oh WOW, I can't even express the fun I had with Trayjan and Jie after I picked them up after work today. We went to eat at one of our favorite restaurants...the kids love it, because on Wednesday they have a Balloon Artist/Clown named Giggles that makes Balloon characters for the kids. Trayjan got an Alien and Jie got a beautiful flower. It was alot of fun for all of us.
The kids didn't realize I had a special fun time planned once we got home. Such excitement when they realized they had a couple special bags full of fun little prizes and candy. They loved it, but what was the most fun, was a Rose Art Kit, that they got to make their own Bouncy Balls. Very cool and the balls were awesome!
The kids had a first tonight....GREEN KOOLAID.....hahaha! I grew up on Koolaid, but no way do my kids get it, two quarts gets 1 cup of sugar, HOLY COW! Now I know why the get 100% Juicy Juice. Well, it was a blast, they love drinking out of fun little glasses, so I picked up some shot glasses so we could have tiny little glasses. Needless to say, they picture looks like a fun little Apple Pucker Adult drink, but it is for sure Green Koolaid and the kids loved it so much, we did it three times.....cheering with each glass of Koolaid.
We also all put on Matching Shamrock Tattoos....Such a wonderful and fun, memorable night! I love these amazing children God has blessed me with!

Jie's Mom's Day
Jie and I had a wonderful time at her Pre-School Mom's Day. It is so cute to see all the wonderful things she has done in class. She gets to make the placemat for our snacks and juice. She made me wonderful air scent pack for my car (which right now it desperately needs due to the messiness of winter). She sang the sweetest songs and I was so happy to watch her interact with her friends. Such a joy to be a mommy! I love her so much and it brought back wonderful memories of my Mom's Days at the same preschool with Trayj. What a beautiful blessing God has given me in my children.
