Good morning n’@!
We had our Easter on Saturday so that our college in OH son could come home. We took him back yesterday. What a whirlwind. I am very tired...it was a beautiful day (for us) both Sat and Sun.
EVERYONE but middle son and his wife were able to attend. A packed house and the granddaughters entertained (well oldest did—we had an Easter egg hunt!). Her baby sis is teething (but liked the FP toy the Bunny left for her here). Great fun.
I was stunned to learn last night that Mother Angelica passed away yesterday. What a final profession of her life time of faith, to go home on the day of the Resurrection.
And...we could be in the path of a polar vortex. It’s spring, but we could still get hard freezes over next two weeks or so. ALL trees have budded and this will drive fruit prices thru the roof!
Sounds like you had a tiring Easter - but in a good way! Same thing here! It was a rush from first thing in the morning until we got home last night. We reserved the family room at the nursing home for our Easter dinner yesterday. MIL is now eating solids! We’re hoping she is able to go home soon.
I just looked up the announcement about Mother A’s passing. How fitting that God chose to take her on Easter Sunday! What a strong and feisty woman! A truly faithful soldier for Christ!
I remember how a late freeze took out the peach blossoms several years ago. I can peaches and peach jam every August. The peach crop was really poor that year.
