Day 99 - April 9th (Maundy Thursday)

Today the children decorated our little Easter Tree. Its a tradition we started a few years ago. Its just some artificial forsythia branches set in a glass vase with gravel, but once it's decorated with the little china eggs, bunnies and chicks and stands in the sun on the table in front of the window it looks so pretty and springlike. We usually leave it there for about a week over Easter then it all gets packed away again until next year - like the Christmas tree.
