Happy Easter

Because He Lives......
We are So Blessed!!






We had a fantastic Easter Sunday. We had great church time and then we just had some time to play before we had dinner with family. We stopped by a park and had fun playing around and taking pictures. It was just a fun time :) And we were able to spend the evening with some friends and just celebrating with their family. What a blessing!!

Some of the very first things Samar would say to us would be............'do you love Jesus?' and 'Jesus loves everyone!'
We literally get asked that daily. Seriously. When we sit at supper she goes around and asked everyone....'do you love Jesus?' She will talk about Jesus and loving Him. And it was important to her that we loved Jesus too. She has brought up people in her life and would say.......'so and so loves Jesus'. And now as her english is progressing and being Easter weekend, we had so many visual opportunities that we could tell her all about Jesus. We could talk about what good friday means, and at church there was a visual of a tomb, and then just being able to celebrate that Jesus wasn't in that tomb, but alive! We are so blessed by this girl and by seeing her love Jesus, there isn't any language barrier for loving Jesus!
