This may be one of the happiest Easters I have had. Ever. This Lenten season was filled with good lessons, good reflections, meaningful episodes.
My long lost cousin, Scott, is continuing our conversation. By all appearances he is as excited as we all are that we have found each other. He has a daughter and a son. He and his wife are/were teachers. He is retired. His daughter is giving birth to her second child today. We are a "green and growing family tree"! (Tom Chapin)
Monday our family will grow by one more. Our little Easter egg will hatch. We don't know her name, yet. Will keep you posted.
Our family buried Uncle Andre last Wednesday. He was a huge personality in our family. The youngest of eight children he exuded fun. He laughed the loudest. He danced out loud. His clothes shouted. Get the picture? He was a little larger than life. So the world is a bit quieter without him in it. But oh! Heaven is a party! Rock on Uncle Andre! Rock on!
Sending all who read this prayers of joy and mercy and may your Easter bring hope and resurrection to you.
Shalom.
