Miscellaneous

     I haven't written here for quite awhile, as there was Good Friday and then Easter, Easter Monday, and Easter Tuesday. So now I am back again.
     Next week is Kiwanis and we are all starting to feel a little nervous and we are also being made to practice more.
          On the way home from work, two raccoons and a deer crossed the road in front of us!
Easter Flowers!

Maple Syrup Season!

     It's Maple Syrup season! My sister just bought the first taffy cones on Friday! They were good. And the Maple Syrup Festival in Elmira is on April 6th. It will be fun to go.
     Easter is also next week. The time flew by sooooo fast-Everything is happening at once. Kiwanis is soon...
    

About Weather.

     What I found surprising is that in Judges 4 in the Bible, it actually tells of a judge of Israel who was a women. I would have never thought that.
     The weather here has been fluctuating quite alot. Sometimes you think that it will almost be spring and then it gets cold again.

Spring

     It was starting to look like spring, but then, the snow came back and the wind began to blow. Too bad. :(  Though I like winter, I still prefer summer over all the seasons.
     I can already tell that Damaris is older, for she has grown bigger since she was born. She is already a month old!

Baptism

     Yesterday, we gave Damaris to Jesus in baptism following the example Jesus set in getting baptized himself. We will try and teach her in the Christian way.
   






Happy Birthday, Benjamin! 
My brother is already a preteen! Time flies. More, as you get older. His birthday was yesterday, but as I didn't go on the computer yesterday, I will say it today.

Passions Andacht

     During Lent, we often have services every Saturday in church members homes. Usually, our minister makes it so that we reflect on each of the Seven Words On the Cross( they are actually sentences, but we call them words that Jesus spoke on the cross) separately. So last Saturday it was at our house as our mother was worried that it may have been too far to go with Damaris. I like doing it.
