Life and Death

Grandma Catherine Schill passed away this week. It is the circle of life, but still difficult when it is your family. She was a lovely woman and will be missed. I think it is fitting that she passed during holy week. Tim and I were off to the store last night to buy him a new suit. His last suit was for his grandpa's funeral 11 years ago. If that is the case - we are pretty lucky.

We are headed up north today. The kids (including the big one) are very excited. It will be nice to spend some time in the big woods. We need to get packed - laundry is still drying.

I had a dream that I forgot the stuff for the Easter bunny. I will make sure to smuggle it out of the house this morning. Andy eluded that there will be four Easter Bunnies this weekend and wanted to know which one of us will hide the baskets. I pleaded ignorance but I am frankly glad that he has caught on. He is ten after all. On the other hand, it is sad to see that the magic is gone with him. Beth fully believes. I wonder for how long. It's been a good run.

Have a wonderful Easter for those of you that we will not see!!
