Jesus Christ said, “I came that they may have life, and have it
abundantly.” John 10:10

All I Need to Know About Life I Learned from the Easter Bunny

Don’t put all of your eggs in one basket.
Walk softly and carry a big carrot.
Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.
There’s no such thing as too much candy.
All work and no play can make you a basket case.
Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.
Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.
Some body parts should be floppy.
Keep your paws off other people’s jellybeans.
The grass is always greener in someone else’s basket.
An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare.
To show your true colors you have to come out of your shell.
The best things in life are still sweet and gooey!
______
~~~~~ Chocolate Rabbit
I got a chocolate rabbit For an Easter treat, A great big chocolate rabbit Good enough to eat. So I ate his ears on Sunday,
His nose I finished Monday. Tuesday I nibbled on his feet. I ate his tail on Wednesday Thursday I kept on,
By Friday he was going, Saturday he was gone. Oh, I loved my chocolate rabbit From the moment that he came,
And if I get another one, I’ll love him just the same.
~~~~~
A friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands.
He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside.
The Pastor said to him, “You need to join the Army of the Lord!”
My friend replied, “I’m already in the Army of the Lord, Pastor.”
Pastor questioned, “How come I don’t see you except at Christmas and Easter?”
He whispered back, “I’m in the secret service.”

God Bless You! HAPPY EASTER!

Catch Me Dreaming

If Death should catch me dreaming,
Then let him rest a while,
Until my dream has run its course,
And brings me one more smile.

That I may die in smiling,
My thanks for all the days,
I’ve seen your face in golden light,
Your dancing in its rays.

If Death should catch me dreaming,
Then let him still his blade,
While I complete the joyfulness,
My life with you has made.

And let him watch my dreaming,
Partaking of its joy,
Until he reaches fullness in,
The table I employ.

If Death should catch me dreaming,
Let him sit down with me,
To pack some flesh around his bones,
Of dreams I’ll let him see.

Hi, Amy - I'm enjoying your posts and pictures and thanks and stuff since you got back online. :) You do such a great job answering your pings I don't know how you do it. My pc's been acting up this week but hopefully it's on the mend now. Just weird stuff - no viruses were found, but a few programs were getting contrary and had to be reinstalled.

Anyway, glad you're back - hope everyone has a wonderful Easter Weekend.

Amen!

Hello Aqua, how are you doing today? My back is hurting and I am getting ready to lay down. I just finished an Apple Blossom Cake (from Meg’s recipe). It looks delicious and smells good. I will take it to an Easter dinner tomorrow evening.

Have a nice, Blessed Easter, Aqua.

Good afternoon, Potlatch. Welcome to Amy’s Place.

Your Snoopy Easter Greeting is adorable. I tried reducing it but could not do it without losing the animation.

In consideration of those on dial-up, I have been deleting all graphics over 100,000. Thank you for understanding.

We love forward to seeing more of your graphic work.

Happy Easter to you and yours.

Hi Jaycee. Had to run out to the store since they’ll all be closed tomorrow. I’m doing well today, we’re going out to eat tomorrow at the local buffet which is pretty good.
