Passover

It happened.

All because of Focus on the Family's magazine Thriving Family

They offered a kid friendly explanation about Passover and

gave some simple instructions on how to have a Seder.

We did it. 

The china and table linens were pulled out, the table was set,

and candles lit for the big event. 

We found that the kids and whole family for that matter enjoyed it, a lot.

I wanted to capture some memories from the night so I wrote down

some quotes to share.

Kylie's definition of Passover was, "drink it, pass it, drink it, pass it."

She is also the one that asked, "Why is there chewed up food (haroset) 

on the plates?"

Allie lost her parsley in the salt water.

Referring to the Matzahs, I wondered " Can we eat God and the Holy 

Spirit matzahs or should I get another?"

But the best part was sitting as a family and speaking, learning,

and laughing together as we celebrated what 

Christ has done for us all.

Christ left His Father and all that He knew to come to earth,

He gave all that He had to all who didn't seem to care,

gave His body and soul for those who

didn't even know His name, 

and He died.

Died to save so many from themselves and the bad things they had done.

In doing this He left those he had lived for and with.

He was then alive 3 days later only because of the Power of God.

You see, He, Christ is Life, and Life forever and He alone 

has conquered death, forever.

So in celebrating Passover, we celebrated Christ, His life and Power to

save souls from eternal damnation.

Favorite thing

Accomplishing something I wanted to do as a family 

and being successful with the whole family enjoying it.
