Hoppy Easter!

Greetings!  We are feeling a little bit better!  This past week has been filled with more laughs and play than the past couple of weeks.  Jonas and Elsa are healing up and are so excited for Easter!  They practiced their Easter Egg hunting skills the past couple of weeks and the focus and attention to detail paid off in the culminating big Easter Egg Hunt in Yelm.  They were in the 3-5 year age bracket and were against some stiff competition.  However, their training did not fail them, and they both were able to get several eggs before the search was over!  They also saw a real fire truck and played lots of games (two of the pictures show the eat a doughnut off of a string game:)

Elsa has always had a keen ear for music and in the past couple of weeks she has really taken to singing the exact words of many many many different songs.  She will just belt it out while the song is playing and if she doesn't really know the words she just makes them up (This is a Dan genetic gift).  When she is falling asleep she will start stringing songs together and sing herself to sleep. 

Jonas is really interested in words and letters.  He likes to call out letters that are on items (like trucks or logos, or signs).  It is really neat to see him having more and more awareness of letters and sounds!

Easter is here!  Celebrate!  Rejoice!

God Bless!
