Slowly But Surely

So. I am slowly but surely climbing my way out of this deep, dark pit that I fell into last month. It's not a complete accomplishment. But, I feel better than I did yesterday. Which isn't 100%. But it's marked improvement. That's all I can ask for.

I remembered that I had not shared any Easter wishes, pictures, or the like. So, here they are...in an attempt not to get any further behind on things than I already am.

Two out of three Indians agreed to pose with their Mommy. The absentee child is 2 years old. Need I say more?


The egg hunt at church was fun to watch. Priya was with the "big" kids which made me sad. She's growing up way too quickly.

Trevor's usual assertiveness was not on display at the egg hunt. I think he collected 4 eggs.

On the contrary...Deven was a mad man on the playground. He couldn't collect those eggs fast enough. He wasn't about to stop and humor his mother while she took a cute posed photograph.


Year after year...it's the same Easter bunny...in the same dress...but the kids love her. I love how kids thrive on predictability and tradition.


Springtime has sprung. Easter has come and gone. At church Easter Sunday the kids let loose some of the butterflies that they had watched since the caterpillar stage. The symbolism was not lost since the word "transformation" is taking on a new meaning in my life. I think I'm still in the chrysalis stage...making small yet dramatic changes...uncovering new discoveries about myself...revealing strengths and mysteries I never knew I possessed...embracing those not-so-perfect qualities that make me ME.

Only God knows when this butterfly will finally take flight. I will try harder to wait patiently until the time comes. By the grace of God, it will happen soon.
