April 1

I was the co-op parent at preschool this morning, so I got to watch Brady and his friends dye eggs (for Easter and the letter E), sing songs, pray for each other, paint, and play.

I was in charge of the egg-dyeing station. Courtesy of what I'm guessing was a bit of white crayon, a white cross appeared on the shell of each egg after it had been dipped into the dye. It was fun for me to retrieve the eggs and point out the cross, and then listen to their reactions. Some didn't say anything; some smiled and exclaimed "like Jesus on the cross!"

It was simply a nice reminder that little children are truly precious. It's no wonder Jesus loved them as much as He did (and does!).
