Om Mani Padme Hum

It's over 9 minutes and sort of cuts off weirdly, but I love it. I can't stop listening to it!
It's calming but also enlivening.  

Egg hunt

So cold this morning!
The eggs are bright on the drab ground

Lily actually lets me take a couple of photos!  Hooray.

Cookie is puzzled by all the activity!  The hunt is fast because of candy greed but also chilliness.

Georgia really likes the soft bunny she got.  It was one of the items on her long list (see below)

Later on we took a walk and the crocuses were blooming in the neighborhood.  I adore the bright orange stamens that call to the recently awakened insects.

The wheat grass Georgia planted grew like gangbusters.  The green is so juicy and bright!

Easter Morning

The Easter Bunny somehow snuck into the girl's closet and gathered their stuffed animals and brought them downstairs for a party!

Georgia made some little lambs at school for the family to open on Easter morning.  They have a sweet and curious look about them.

Cookie got her own basket with a squeaky bunny.  She is very excited by all the activity on the floor with her.

Eggs are everywhere!

Some flaming bright tulips with feathery edges.

Easter excitement is building!

Georgia is very very excited about Easter coming.  She talks about it non stop.  She Is decorating and making gifts for family and for the bunny.  And she is asking lots of logistical questions and making wish lists.

Here is a book she wrote about the Easter Bunny.  I love his little face.

Lily is excited for candy and the bunny, but at 10 years old is a bit less exuberant and is hoping for some of the colorful new socks the bunny usually brings.

Georgia's play

Georgia was in "Grisell Under the Bridge" in the local theater class this week.  She was nervous, but she practiced her lines for weeks and did a great job up there.  She seemed to enjoy it, even though she had to take deep breaths every time we mentioned it for the week before the big day.  I thought she might just bail and sit on my lap, so I was impressed that she stayed up there on stage.

Afterwords she said, "I am an ACTOR!" very dramatically and then had a fit that we didn't greet her coming off the stage with flowers and a present.  I think it was a let down to have it be over.  Such is the actors' life.

Snowdrops

Aren't they lovely?  The give me some hope that warm weather will come.  The birds and the light have come back but I'm still wearing my big winter coat.  Rob lamented the other day that the cold weather starts in November, so really we are cold for 6 months of the year in New England.  Half of the the year!  It's cold!  Acckk. 

I'm ready for the other half. 

Maybe April will be deliciously warm so we'll get a big 7/12 of the year wearing short sleeves.
