Since Easter does get turned into a commercial holiday so much of time, filled with bunnies, eggs, baskets, and treats, I believe it's important to reflect on what the holiday is really about. Now, I know that this can difficult to do with little guys around but sharing Jesus' story is so important...especially this weekend.
I too am guilty of the commercial buy in to the holiday, don't judge...we've purchased 2 bags of Starburst jelly beans and a chocolate rabbit currently sits headless in the kitchen. However, you can celebrate the true meaning of Easter in fun/practical ways with your family. I think Darby at Fly Through Our Window (one of my favorite family blogs) shared an excellent way to reflect on Easter's meaning and importance with a recipe for Resurrection Cookies a couple of years ago. If you have little ones around this would be a perfect activity to make with them today.
I hope you all have a blessed weekend and are able to spend some time thanking Jesus for His sacrifice for our lives.
Have a wonderful Easter!
XOXO
