Anyway, we took it easy on Easter Sunday. We didn't wake up to any alarms. That was nice. Riley woke up to find his Easter basket filled with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games and activity sets and one chocolate bunny. I really don't let him eat much candy especially chewy or hard candy so one chocolate bunny was just perfect for him. He was thrilled too when he saw it.
After breakfast we saw Joel Osteen's Easter service on tv. That was our Easter Sunday service so we sort of did the traditional thing.
When that was over we headed out to a park. Again, being outdoors just feels so right. I love to be on the go ... just spending time out in nature can make my {our} day even better.
Wish I had Riley's stomach muscles. There is no way I can do what he's doing, lol. I'll probably end up pulling a muscle or something.
I did at least wanted to get a picture of my three kids on Easter Sunday. I'm not really good at taking lots of pictures of my three kids together. They're always doing their own thing and since Riley is my little shadow well, he's the one I take the most pictures of. It's only natural, he's the baby.
Kids are never satisfied when it comes to leaving a fun place ... no matter how long one spends there. Riley didn't want to leave the park so we had a whiny four year old all the way to the restaurant. That is definitely overwhelming. I'm glad that by closing my eyes for a few minutes and meditate I can calm my mind and find peace among the chaos. It took me years to master this but now I know. Once we got to the restaurant he was fine.
Hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter.
