Holidays
So, major holidays in my family are generally a bit stressful. I am curious how I, along with so many other people, can forget the meaning of a holiday and freak out. I understand that I did get a bit out of whack today. I mean, I will completely admit that the first part of today I didn't have the true meaning of Easter in my mind... And yet, God always has a way of bringing us back to remembering the true meaning of the day. I was perfectly content being a bitter woman all day. I was frustrated at having to clean up the house even though I shouldn't have been. I was frustrated when my grandpa only asked me one question the entire night basically and then I wasn't able to answer it because we sang happy birthday . I was frustrated when we were stressed out before going to church. I was frustrated all day and antisocial. But then we went to my grandma's house. My grandma spent all day cooking dinner for us. She spent so much time making everything perfect. Then, afterward, she gave herself selflessly and everything that she had. She let us try on all of her jewelry. Gave both Chelsea and I two pieces of jewelry. Then, she gave us flowers, candy, rolls, and my sister lotion. Seriously, it was the most amazing thing... Someone giving what they have so selflessly. Then you think of Jesus. He gave his life for us. I am such a pain in the butt, but he still died for us. He loves us fully and completely. I can't believe it. Thank you Lord God. I can't even imagine.
