Easter Greetings! Lent is over. Our family goal was to keep a positive attitude, which proved to be very beneficial for us all. We are enjoying each other’s company more, and with our busy schedules, quantity time is limited so the quality time has been really a blessing.
Easter is a great time to reflect on the many wonderful blessings we have. Today, instead of rushing home from church to feast on Easter basket goodies, our family and friends volunteered at a local church that serves dinner to the hungry and homeless. This is a weekly event for the community that doesn’t close for holidays, snow days, vacations and the like. It was an eye opener for my kids to see that not everyone has the warmth of a home or the excitement of an Easter basket. They want to continue to volunteer on a regular basis. It only took a couple hours out of our Sunday to make a difference.
Not all of our service has to be dental related. Encourage your children to reach out to those less fortunate. They will gain so much more than they give.
Welcome to my life,
Lisa
