Happy Easter

We hope all had a Happy Easter. Warren had a great time. He was too small last year to really enjoy it. This year he got to have some M&M's for breakfast. This is a really special treat, because you can only do this on Easter and Christmas.

Wyatt was excited to wake up Easter morning to discover that the Easter Bunny had come and brought him a new fishing rod and tackle box. His tackle box served as his Easter basket and was filled with fun and sweet treats. He even had some grubs in there to go trout fishing with his dad.

Warren had fun at his first Easter egg hunt. He preferred to discover what was inside each egg instead of finding the eggs.

Wyatt loves hunting for Easter eggs, this was his second egg hunt this Easter. He had a egg hunt at Shevans Park with this class (they had a really good time).

Todd and I are so truly blessed to have these two very healthy and happy little boys. We are enjoyng every minute with them. I hope everyone had a great Easter.

"Grandaddy" or "Big Grandaddy"

We got the call about 3:00am this morning that Grandaddy (Todd's Grandaddy) had passed away. He has been at Snug Harbor for quite some time now and has not really been "living" since Granny passed away about 2-1/2 years ago. He missed her terribly, but he misses her no more. I know that the two of them are walking hand in hand down those streets paved with gold.


I told Wyatt about Grandaddy passing (BIG Grandaddy as he refers to him) when I picked him up from school today. I did not want to upset him before going to school today. I told him that Big Grandaddy had died last night, but he went up to heaven to be with Jesus and Big Granny. He questioned me with: When is he coming back down? I said, Baby he is not coming back, but he is OK he is happy now. He thought for a few moments and said...."Well, I guess I am going to have to send him my picture on balloons too. For Christmas we sent Big Granny one of the boys Christmas pictures on a bunch of helium balloons up to heaven. I guess we are going to have to get some more helium balloons to send some more pictures up. This conversation showed me just how much wisdom these little ones have and just how innocent they are.


I am sad to think that Warren will never know his "Big Grandaddy", he only got to meet him once. But, he will surely know how wonderful a man he was. Todd told me last night that he thought of him as a daddy. I responded to him, surely you do he was the only daddy you ever knew. He was much more than a grandfather to Todd and his siblings he was the male role model and father figure they never had. He will truly be missed by them and many, many more!

Wyatt's "OUT OF THIS WORLD" Party

Finally---here are some pictures from Wyatt's Birthday Party. He had a great time. His cake turned out really well. My mom made it and then it was a group effort to decorate it. It did not take nearly as long to make this as it did Warren's thank goodness.
