First Tooth

Addison woke up Saturday morning with the beginnings of her first tooth. One of her bottom teeth has barely broken the skin and you can feel it when you stick your finger in her mouth or when you're feeding her. She continues to drool and chew on everything, but seems a little less irritable and cranky than she was last week. I am hoping she feels better now that it's starting to come in. She gets to experience her first dose of Easter eggs on Saturday. I'm hosting a picnic and Easter Egg hunt for our church preschoolers at the Art Park downtown on Saturday afternoon. I plan to get lots of pictures that I'll share with you later this week. Hope everyone has a great Easter and remember that we have so much to be thankful for. I pray that as you celebrate Easter with your family that you'll remember the lyrics to this song and let the words resonate in you.

More than a baby in a manger
to whom nobles would humbly bow their knee
Or the young Man who heaven knew as Savior
He is alive in me

More than the Man who walked on water,
or the One who caused blinded eyes to see
Greater than all the signs and wonders
He is alive in me
He lives, He lives;

He conquered the grave,
covered our sin
He lives, He lives;

Death could not hold the promise within
He lives

More than the Man who heard hosanna
From the same cried, "crucify the King"
Freely He gave as they demanded
Still He's alive in me

More than the man, mankind rejected
With nails in His hands and through His feet
But the end told much more then they expected

For everyone knows in three days he rose
With power forever to redeem you and me
He lives; He lives

He conquered the grave,
Covered our sin
He lives, He lives

Death could not hold,
the promise within
