There are many, many times that I wonder if we get through to our kids. We try to tell them things and instil certain values in them only to pray that it sinks in.
This Easter I think we got a nice glimpse. Amanda gave us a card that said,
"Everyone wonders how eggs and chocolate came to be a 'custom' here. But everyone doesn't realize the true meaning of Easter is Jesus. But you've taught me that Mom and Dad, and I love you and Jesus too! Love, Amanda"
Made me cry. I love that girl! :)

Presto chango
This is what my laundry room looked like when we moved into our house:
It's right off the side of our kitchen and it's the first thing you see when you enter the house from the garage. Not exactly my idea of ideal.
This set of washer & dryer came with the house and we already owned a set...which got my husband and I thinking.
We decided that we'd hook up both sets in the basement and turn this area into a pantry! :)
In my head I have a vision of some sort of door or curtain for here to hid this all from view.
Our kitchen doesn't have a lot of cupboard space so these extra shelves are great!!
And here is what my NEW laundry room looks like now. Thank you Ian (my husband) & Jon (friend) for all your help!

Funny
I woke up this morning with this comment made on my Facebook wall,
I have been meaning to tell you the hilarious thing that Abram said to me on Sunday. When he had his candy after church I asked him what verse he said to Pastor Dave to get it. He said "Galatians 4:15". I was very impressed, and asked him what that verse said. He frankly replied, "that's the verse, Galatians....4:15. Just Galatians 4:15." I was telling Nate about this before we went to bed that night and we decided to look it up. Just for the record Galatians 4:15 says: "What then has become of the blessing you felt? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have gouged out your eyes and given them to me." We thought that was so funny...I'm guessing he doesn't really have that one memorized! :o) He just cracks me up!
Boy oh boy do I love him!
His verse was actually Galatians 5:14 "Love your neighbor..."

More pics :)
I was snapping a few pictures this week to test out the lighting by our living room window. I just thought I'd share some.
