HAPPY EASTER

     HAPPY EASTER FRIENDS! Today is one of my favorite holidays of the year. Every one is always so joyful, spring is in the air, and there are flowers everywhere! It's just hard not to appreciate everything that I've been blessed with. Today is also hard. I moved away from home in 2014 and Easter was always such a big day in my house. The whole family would get together for dinner and we'd eat and there would be Easter egg hunts (which I would always kill at). It's just definitely a holiday I always wish I was home for.
     Thankfully, I will not be alone this year. I have been invited to a family's Easter dinner. I have been accepted as one of theirs this holiday and I couldn't be more excited. There aren't going to be any Easter eggs and my mom isn't going to be there and my family isn't going to be there. But I will have a stand in family to hug and laugh with. I also offered to work tonight for someone who wants to be with their family. How cool is it that I get to go to an Easter dinner and then be able to turn around and allow someone that same thing! That's something that always makes me feel a little bit less down. Knowing that I'm giving up some of my time so that someone else can have a great holiday. That's love friends!
      I'm asking you to find the joy today! Find something, one thing to feel happy about or blessed about and run with it. Find your stand in family, there out there I promise.

With love and Easter blessings,
Elizabeth
