Happy Easter!!!


Happy Easter, sweets!
Speaking of sweets, I have consumed
an awful lot of chocolate in 2 days.
Those easter cream eggs are my weakness, I tell ya!

We had my Dad's side of the family over
for a potluck dinner yesterday.
It was absolutely wonderful!
Tonnes of food, lots of visiting
a wee bit of tasty beverages.

We did an egg hunt for the 6 kids and my mom
had made up baskets full of goodies for prizes.

I adore my family, it was a great evening!

Thank you to everyone that has sent me happy thoughts
on my first week of work.
It went well!

I put so much pressure on myself that I feel
like I should be a pro already.
And I feel that others expect it of me too.
Why do I do that to myself?
Anyway, I think once the learning curve has flattened, 
I will enjoy working there.

It was SUPER hard to only see my girls for a short time 
in the evenings before they went to bed.
The evenings were crazy getting ready for the next day.
This is going to be a big transition for us all.

I am trying to check in on you, lovelies, as I have time
and figure out a good routine for everything.
I miss you guys!

Have a fantastic Easter and an even better week ahead!!

I hope the first week back to work wasn't too bad! I'm sure you miss spending time with your girls :( Hopefully summer will be here soon. The easter get together sounded great and the food looked yum!

I want to be a surrogate family member - I think you guys have the best "shin-digs".

It sounded wonderful and I know from all your other photos I have seen the "spreads" you throw for your guests.

you take care lovely with your new venture.
One can only imagine the motherly struggle you are enduring - I know you have the best support around you - but you are still a mother and we all battle "motherly demons" of fatigue, guilt and struggles underneath our pearly smile.

hugs Sheri
