A walk, some time playing on the park in the cold mid-morning still all silvery with dew, and after lunch even a swim too courtesy of my mum, has totally spent even Jenna's massive amount of energy today. So they both went to bed very early, after lighting the candle in our Easter garden and wrapping a little wax caterpillar to put in the "tomb".

DH laughs at me for being so excited about re-decorating the table for Easter breakfast; I have a little box of goodies hidden away all ready. I'll admit it quite openly though, I love the anticipation of the changing calender of festivals and planning all these small surprises through our year... There's something magical about it, every time the same but different, every year more questions and more joy in celebrating together. I can't *quite* say I enjoy it more than the children, because the joy of it for me lies at least partly in seeing their faces every time...

It's good to see that your trust in nature was well founded and that Morgan is going to be OK. I got a bit of dry skin on my hand hart week, which was probably due to the cold weather, and everyone at work said it was because I wasn't wearing hand cream, and I had lots of well meaning people offering to lend me some. The last time that happened and someone just slapped the cream on without giving me chance to get away, I developed a very nasty rash!
