Hope springs eternal in the human breast:
Man never is, but always To be Blest.
Easter for me is always about new ideas and beginings. It's a time that marries well with the calendar of the North, where Easter marks the start of rebirth and growth in the garden and that seems to connect well with all the other things that go on in my head.
My celebration of the Season this year, will be personified by the arrival of #1 Son from Australia for a brief and fleeting weeks visit.
I'm sure having James here will be "just the thing that I need" to jump start my Spring ....
...way better than Chocolate, in any shape or form, and he'll be the biggest blessing that I receive this weekend, no doubt about it!
Here's wishing you all the best and most wonderful of Easter Blessings too!
You're back!!
Did you have fun? How's everything?

I just did a blog entry on LaWendula's paper swap and your kind gesture. That was so nice of you.

Dear Marie,
I just received a lovely packet of ephemera from you...in fact, I think I remember you asking for my address. I also got one from Pat. How am I so lucky to get two???And should this lovely package belong to someone else? I hope not!
Fondly,
Suz

Happy Easter and Happy Spring (which actually seems to be making a shy and hesitant appearance). Enjoy your son's company, but don't rule out the chocolate.

Lucky Duck! I'm sure every moment with your boy will be precious.
This is my very first Easter without my son. He's flown to Melbourne for 10 days to visit his girlfriend.
My husband and I just finished our brekkie eggs, then Easter Bunny egg, and remarked on how this is the very first Easter without an Easter Egg Hunt. (even teenagers like a good egg hunt, they just don't admit it!)

Okay, can we talk?
This is so pretty and so fun I can hardly stand it. Can I use it to send out Easter emails? I will give you credit. If I can't use it, don't tell me.
You are a funny girl! Thank you for your visit! I was winding up my time here on the bleb because I MUST go make stuff, and when I saw my new email alert I was tickled. And I didn't have time to comment here when making my blog post link
WHAT?!
but I'm glad you reminded me. So here's my comment. I don't have to make 17 separate comments because I'm up to date on the cool stuff you make and share here!
Am I still talking?
I don't actually have any traffic stats on my blog and have no idea who when or where anyone visits me. I was going to say why too, but that would be too honest.
YAY for James! I'm so glad he gets to see his mum!!
Best to you and yours for a lovely Spring Celebration.
