my daughter had a part in the church program today... "Jesus died on the cross". she did so well at home and knowing how she did at christmas i knew that she would probably just say it at home. i was so nervous for her. we talked about how daddy used to talk on stage and he was so good at it. she said that she was going to do it, but i knew that it probably was not going to happen. i was nervous she was going to cry again, but she didn't and i was so proud that she stood there most of the time and crawled down the stage herself to come to me. she ended up not saying the line, but i was just really proud that she stood there and did not cry.
i have also been teaching her that if i say "He is risen" then she needs to say, "He is risen indeed". so tonight at the dinner table that what we said back and forth throughout dinner. then she asked about who is risen and that was such a great talk. i love my little girl.
during church today, i remembered how we did Resurrection Sunday last year. it was at my second favorite place over there and i remember P playing the guitar. he practiced for a couple weeks getting ready for that afternoon. the children loved opening each egg that had something in it to represent something from Easter. i remember washing each others' feet. hmmm~ it was a great memory to have.
God is good isn't He. right now i wish i could sit down with Jesus drinking a hot cup of chai tea latte and just chat about my deepest heart things on the most comfortable couch... what a great date that would be. sitting in front of my Savior having His full attention. maybe i'll go do that now... i don't have chai tea latte, but i could sit and have a great conversation with Him...
He is risen...
