Matthew discovers the Disney channel

We let Matthew watch some PBS shows. This morning, I put the Disney channel on - clearly he was captivated by Handy Manny.

Chillin'

Chillin' with Daddy and watching Jonah

Sushi, anyone?

Mark got this for Matthew while he was in D.C. last week.

Lent is over

I was reminded over and over again of how weak I am.

The biblical perspective of trials..........

When Simon was forced to carry the cross for Christ, all he did was haul some wood. Christ carried infinitely more.

[Simon] carried only the wood of [the cross], he did not bear the sin that made it such a load. Christ did but transfer to Simon the outward frame, the mere tree. But the curse of the tree, which was our sin and its punishment, rested on Jesus’ shoulders still. Dear friend, if you think that you suffer all that a Christian can suffer, if all God’s billows roll over you, yet remember, there is not one drop of wrath in all your sea of sorrow. Jesus took the wrath. Jesus carried the sin.” — Charles Spurgeon

Easter 2010

Matthew looked pretty dapper in his seersucker suit today! He loved the Easter egg hunt - but was not very impressed with his candy(that's okay with me). We had a trial run Easter egg hunt when G'ma and G'pa H were here last week. I think he'll enjoy the Jonah Veggies Tales video, though.

Play ball!
