Easter 2012

"Never ignore a person who loves you, cares for you, and misses you. One day you might wake up and realize you lost the moon while counting the stars."

It took over a week to get my results.
Things look the same as last time, but now they have all the numbers they need.
I will go back in 6 to 9 months for another echo then we will go from there.

We had a nice Easter.
Our family went to church for confession the week before.
On Good Friday we went to our church for the Stations of the Cross done by the Youth Group. Our children Ethan and Rachel sang with the choir. The Youth Choir always sounds so beautiful.
Then on Sunday we celebrated Jesus' Resurrection, Easter.
Our children woke us up early - with coffee in bed - and waited for
Tom and I to come downstairs before digging into their baskets.
After checking out their goodies, we got ready for mass. We were able to walk to church. The weather was beautiful and we were actually ready to go early enough that we had time to walk.
Monsignor's Homily was very good. He talked about Heaven and how it is a place we all want to get to someday, but understandably, none of us are in a hurry to get there. That is because or our relationships we have here on Earth.
So true.
The people in our lives should be the most important part.

And just a personal "vent" just to get this out of my head...
I was just browsing on Facebook while nursing Cameron.
I read one of the most disturbing things I have ever read.
Someone posted an article about abortion.
There was a quote about someone wishing to speak to all the babies killed ever since abortion was made legal.
One of the replies after that was "Well then you'll have to travel to hell first because that's where all the unsaved go."
Why would someone say that? I was so upset by that statement. Is it all just a joke? One woman wrote about having a mass hysterectomy day just so women can have control over their own bodies. Ok - That's a bit extreme.
Just disturbing.

Cameron is snuggled in my arms right now.
He is getting so big - and it is all "me."
Cam refuses to eat anything! All he wants is to nurse.
He will "gag" on cereal, fruit,...I got him to eat two bites of yogurt yesterday. Today he took one little bite and no more.
He is growing and doing well so I'm trying not to worry. I will just try a little something with him every day.
He is standing and cruising along our furniture.
He will be walking before we know it!
