This little light of mine

We all celebrated the life of sweet Lily on yesterday.  I really hoped that I was ready to go back to work, but I wasn't.  My boss totally understood.  I know that I have to go back, I have to work in the same room that I had many fun memories with Lily.  I know I can do it, but not today!!

Over the past 10 days I have spent time "mushing" bread in a bag!! Someone at bible study gave me a bag of Amish Friendship bread.  I am so glad it was tasty because 10 day to make bread is a bit much for me. Now, I get torture bless someone else with a bag of starter.  I actually kept a starter for myself, everyone we shared it with loved it.

This is the last mini loaf of 7.

God is so funny, I prayed that someone close to me would get pregnant to share a baby with me and he did it!! I'll let her tell it. I am VERY,VERY, happy for this family.

I am still (after a year) trying to get settled into this house.  I had a big empty wall that needed LOVE.  I wanted to do a gallery wall of crosses but I couldn't afford to go out and buy a dozen so........ I found huge wooded "S" for the wall.  I love it. I know it still needs more but one step at a time. (if you're wondering what to get me for the next couple of gift giving occasions, a hangable cross would be nice!!)

Easter was great and busy! We started by attending a Seder. It was lots of fun (except when my daughter was laughing uncontrollably that I had to send her out) It was hard to keep a straight face and I didn't  and get on to her at the same time. Laughter is contagious!! We also had dinner (at noon) at my parents house.  Then we had a REAL dinner at our house with friends and family.  It was a great day.

This is the Seder plate, with all the bitter herbs!

Happy Monday!!!!
