"Both abundance and lack of abundance exist simultaneously in our lives as parallel realities. It is our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend...when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present- love, health, family, friends, work, joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us happiness- the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth."

Dumpty's and Bird's Nests

We had an egg dying party at Grandma's house last weekend which is always a little nerve wracking with permanent dye and unpredictable children. But we all survived, thanks to our time-proven tradition of wearing garbage bags to protect their clothes.

The kits came with face stickers, so we had to give them all faces and line them up on the counter. Once she got them all situated around her, she exlaimed, "There, now all my dumpty's are happy!" She couldn't resist making them "walk" on the counter and of course one jumped off and had a great fall.

Then we had another project that I brought for the kids. We made birds nests out of melted chocolate and chow mein noodles. And then we put jelly beans and a Peep on top. It was a Easter fun project.
