Easter, cookies, and the girls

Happy Easter!

Lydia seems to have really grasped the concept that Jesus died on the cross. She brings it up quite regularly. When it does come up Micah and I say, "Yes He did, and then He rose again! He was only dead three days." She would argue, "No, He died on the cross."

And then we were leaving church on Easter and getting buckled in the car when Lydia said, "Jesus is Alive!" She couldn't hear it from us, but when her Sunday School teacher explained it to her it was as good as gold. I am so grateful for the body of Christ!

Lydia and Elli have grown quite affectionate with one another. It is precious and comical at times.

Lydia helped me make cookies. She experimented with the flour to see and feel and smell what it is like.

Elli was only interested in the Cheez-its.

Just the girls!
