Jack's first Easter

Jack's first Easter came on the heels of one of the warmest month of March on Minnesota record. There's no snow, plus we experienced 80 degrees the previous week. People appreciate spring here unlike anywhere I've ever been, and we are all grateful for the early warmup.

So it was very important to document Jack's first Easter. H

e even sported another tie. His going-home-from-the-hospital outfit is still too big, but it fit better than it did one month ago.

I am happy to report Jack acted like the perfect angel in church... the perfect angel with hiccups. His hiccups were so small and cute that people couldn't quite figure out what the sound was, so they kept turning around and looking for a frog or something.

After services, we were lucky enough to be invited to a friend's house for Easter brunch. A new baby is always a novelty, and the two girls who were there were quite enamored with holding and playing with baby Jack. The food was delicious, and it was very special to celebrate the holiday with good friends. Thank you for the great holiday.
