We celebrated Easter with our new family of four with resurrection rolls and the Easter story. James had his Easter egg basket from the church egg hunt last weekend. It was definitely a low-key Easter three in a half weeks after the birth of Sara Kate. We read the Easter story, and we taught James to say "Jesus is ALIVE." I told him the Resurrection rolls were empty on the inside just like the tomb. Jesus was ALIVE. He was not there. A few minutes later, James pointed to the hollow center of the roll and said, "Jesus ALL GONE." I don't know if I should be leaping for joy that he knew Jesus wasn't in the tomb or if Quique and I have warped our son's understanding of the Resurrection by reducing it to an empty crescent roll. Trusting in God's goodness to bring the Gospel to my little guy's heart. Praise God, Christ is RISEN!!!!
