Do you ever wake early on Easter? And just sit with a cup of coffee, and watch the sun come up? The world seems peaceful, the birds sing quieter, the city is peaceful too. I have been in many different cities in my life, Easter morning always feels different and special. There is a calmness at sunrise on Easter morning. The peace and comfort seems different , and more special, this morning.

(14,018 posts)clean up around the church grounds. The kids' Easter egg hunt happens in a few hours, and there was the usual detritus to sweep away from the areas.
At least it was a battery-powered leaf blower, so it wasn't TOO loud.
Happy, and quiet, Easter to you.

I baked traditional goodies for todays family meal yesterday, my mom and grandmother standing by my side in spirit, reminding me of the recipes.
This year we have a brand new family member, one week old, joining our celebration. Maybe Ill be around a while to teach this great-grandbaby girl child some of the recipes.
Sun is shining, peach tree has beautiful pink blossoms.
I guess Ill go and get some of that coffee before you drink it all up.
Happy Easter!

(6,254 posts)resident so I have a lot to be thankful for. They all live at home. But at what point is Easter egg hunts for adult children TOO MUCH! My wife wont let them grow up. I did my part for over 30 years. Enough with my doctor son running around the house looking for eggs. They do it for my wife, but am I really a bad guy for saying ENOUGH! She works her ass off as do I. I hate holidays. Its too much. Oh, and my son and daughter leave for Italy for 2 weeks this afternoon. I wish I could go to Italy but cant find the time too busy cleaning and hiding Easter eggs.

(61,695 posts)my grocery store had expensive kits, not dyes. I wanted to do it to mark the day. To continue TRADITION, but it wasn't meant to be.
I wanted to go to the early or middle church service, but my husband took off doing his hobby early today, and I couldn't leave, not with a MIL with Alzheimers and a severely autistic grown son.
My spouse and I are too busy just trying to keep it all together. I'm having a rough time not being able to celebrate special days due to being homebound.
