April 4th: "Three Gifts In His Word"

Author's Note:  A four-year-old preschool Easter party is the perfect place to find all kinds of gifts.





#281  "The Earth is full of the goodness of the Lord."  
                                 Psalm 33:5




#282  "I came that they may have life and have it abundantly." 
                                 John 10:10







#283  "Shine--be radiant with the glory of the Lord--for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you."
                            Isaiah 60:1



April 3rd: "Three Gifts Surprisingly Found"

Author's Note:  Not surprisingly, the best gift was an afternoon with the eldest at the museum we've been to a thousand times...but in the context of a first grade field trip, there's something extra magical about it....

Here were a few surprises that popped up during the trip:


#278  Detail of the model train town




#279  Iguana lunch




#280  Hail...lots of big hail.  Thankful we were safe in the car, under a tree, on the side of the road.





April 2nd: "Three Gifts White"




#275  Easter lilies in the grocery store  (and I can still smell them)





#276  Freckled sky





#277  Outgoing letters in the mailbox
