The night before Easter...

I want to mention that I didn't sleep well last night. At all. We stayed at the brother-in-law's place and his venting system is really loud and then deathly quiet. During the quiet I could hear Jeffrey's breathing and eventual snoring. I had to push him over onto his side like 20 times. I got up at 4am and wandered around, got bored and came back. Then I was able to sleep until 10. Man. 

Anyway, I am very well aware of what this week means in light of Christ and His sacrifice on the cross. I'm so thankful for that grace because without it I know I'd be destined for hell. When He took my sins on Maundy Thursday, died on Good Friday and rose again 3 days later on Easter Sunday so many years ago, He was preparing a way for me to be released of my sin through His own sacrifice. Amazing. Grace is amazing. 

Tomorrow I'm going to Mankato to spend time with my aunt and uncle and their family. It's always a nice time- partly because they have kids (grandkids) to keep us entertained. Hmm, why don't the Peterson's have any grandkids? (Don't look at me!) I get my baby fix every Sunday in the nursery and that is simply grand. Somebody once told me that God made babies cute so they wouldn't be ignored... certainly could be true, they are cute. Noisy too. Maybe He made them noisy for a not-to-be-ignored reason as well. Always thinking... always thinking. 

Anyway, Happy Easter to my 2 Followers and anyone else who might happen upon this Easter posting.
