Hi ^.^ I hope you have a great weekend. 🙂
I’m just planning to spend it in peace with my SO and son. Also finishing editing my romance novel and submitting on Sunday 🙂 Then we’ll go to my moms for an easter egg hunt for the kids.
This week I’m just sharing a new story – the main character is a mute girl (later you find out she’s autistic)…I try to only post writings on my blog so I just answered your questions here 😉
See you later 😀

Ramona, my plans are to rest in Him, unplug a little bit and be present to family as we visit on Sunday…Good Friday church service…and Sunday of course. I usually teach Sunday School to 1-3rd grade but am off. My thought is to just be open to what He has for me as I ponder Him and seek His face over the next few days…resting in His grace and pondering His amazing love. That’s what I want to do. Tender times.Hope you have a blessed time, as well…

My husband and daughter will be traveling on Easter, so it will just be me and my youngest daughter at home. I’m a little sad this will be the first holiday we have not spent together as a family.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
I’m so sorry to hear that – I know what being apart on a holiday is like!
At least you and your daughter will be together.
I hope you have a wonderful Easter (enjoy your “girl time”!)
I’ve been writing about Passover this week. I might be the only one! Today I wrote about the inability to dream about what you’ve never seen. It got me thinking about my own life. There’s lots to see and learn on Friendship Friday. Thanks for hosting.

I enjoyed your Passover post Barbara! I hope you enjoy your celebration!
Thanks for hosting. 🙂
We used to do Sunrise Service when we lived where it was warm, but now we don’t. We do attend service though. I love Easter! Happy Easter to you!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
I’ve always thought it would be cool to attend a Sunrise Service but my body says otherwise.
I tend to be more of an Evening Vigil kind of gal!
(But I’m hoping, just maybe, one of these years…)
Happy Easter to you too!
Thanks for hosting. Have a lovely Easter!

Have a beautiful Easter weekend Judy!
Do you have any special traditions that are specific to Jamaica?
Our Easter will be very quiet. We’ll attend worship service to honor our Lord’s sacrifice and rejoice in His resurrection. Then back home for a simple meal and rest. The Lord is risen!

says:
Have a blessed Easter, Nancy.
We are also looking forward to a quiet and simple celebration and a day of much-needed rest.
Yes, the Lord is risen, and for that, I rejoice!
Sunday should be a turn out crowd at church to celebrate the Resurrection! I went to the beauty shop this morning to get my hair done in anticipation – – and my car would not start !!! I had left my lights on and ran the battery down. A frantic phone call to Robert and he brought jumper cables and got me going. I went right home and decided not to do other erronds I had planned on! Thank you for hosting!
Boy am I glad it’s almost Friday, and Easter weekend as well.
Thanks for hosting and I wish you a Happy Easter 🙂

Sounds awesome – enjoy your weekend!
I put together Easter Baskets for the kids (and even for the hubby and I) so the “Easter Bunny” will be leaving them out for Sunday morning – and the kids will hunt for Easter eggs, too. I’ll also be making my infamous ham dinner to enjoy later in the day, and since we don’t have any family here, there will be an inordinate amount of time spent on the phone talking to my family out West. 😉
Thanks for hosting – have a great weekend and Happy Easter! 🙂
