This year was different. I still am not speaking to God and really don't know where I'm at with my faith, or if I even have any. I just can't shake off what He's allowed, and I just can't let it go. I went to church with the family, because they wanted me to, but I couldn't bring myself to sing the songs(or even stand during them), and I certainly didn't take communion. I'm all set. So- this Easter was "new" for me but not in the usual way. I wonder if this is a one-time life phase (it's been pretty long, if so), or if this is the new normal. Either way, Easter Sunday was a nice day- I like seeing happy families out together, and I love time with my family, and enjoy going to visit the extended family.
Another new thing was that the boys didn't want baskets this year~ some candy and $5 per kid made them happy campers, and I can dig this new tradition!
