He Is Risen

This Easter weekend I am trying very hard to teach my two toddlers the story behind the celebration.  I want them to comprehend as much as they can regarding Gethsemane, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection.  Although my children are only 2 and 3 years old they seemed to comprehend the reverence and importance of this time of the year.  They understood that he was hated and then killed but that he overcame death.  We talked about the results of his sacrifice, that we can live as a family forever.

I am so grateful for my Savior and his willingness to carry the burden of my sin and suffer.  I am grateful for my family and that we can live together forever.
