CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- My daughter recently wrote to tell me that she'd been thinking about how special Easter was when she was a child. She particularly remembers the new outfits she and each of her siblings got for Easter morning. "We'd shop for weeks to find just exactly the right outfit
cheap long prom dresses," she said. "We got new clothes from the skin out!"
She was right. Elegant spring dresses
grad dresses, matching wraps
cheap Cocktail dresses, hats, shoes and gloves were proudly worn by my three girls as we left for Easter morning church service. And their two brothers weren't left out, by any means. They, too

Times have certainly changed! Nowadays, the jeans and tennis shoes worn every day are fine, in most cases, for that special Sunday morning. In some ways
cheap guest dresses, the change is good. Today's relaxed mode of dress is an equalizer. No child has to feel he can't go to church or Sunday school on Easter because his parents can't afford to buy him a new outfit.
How exciting Easter is for children! It's second only to Christmas as the most fun holiday of the year. They delight in helping their mothers dye eggs -- watching them slowly change from white to the beautiful pastel colors of springtime is awesome. They look forward to finding baskets full of chocolate bunnies and assorted goodies when they awaken on Easter morning
A-Line dresses, and the Easter egg hunts that follow are especially fun. My kids used to hide their eggs for days after the holiday. I'd finally make them throw them away after the shells were cracked and the eggs were beginning to spoil.
While it's natural for children to think about the things that make a holiday fun

"Easter Bunny!" a little boy bellowed. The congregation burst into laughter and the pastor, speechless for a few seconds, finally said, "You never know what they're going to say."
It's hard to predict what children will say or do -- or what will make a lasting impact on them. I had no idea, until recently, that my eldest daughter, now grown

As her mother, it warms my heart to know that she has such delightful childhood memories of Easter.Topics related articles:
