Do you celebrate Easter? Do you get nervous about the name “Easter” because it began as a pagan holiday? Afterall the word “Easter” was derived from the Anglo-Saxon spring goddess Eostre. Well, don't! Real Christians celebrate the true meaning of Easter - the miraculous Resurrection of Jesus Christ. As long as the content is bibilical and pure, it doesn't matter if you celebrate “Easter” or “Resurrection Sunday”. That's what my family believes. Our language is replete with all kinds of pagan and mythological references anyway. So relax and don't get hung up by the name! :) 

I better go now. We're going to have our Easter family devotions. If you still haven't gotten your copy of a wonderful Easter devotional with a sweet and meaningful craft, check this out! You still have time to do it with your family!

Tomorrow, I will post some of our Easter traditions. If you have one to share, please do!

Oh, you might also want to check this out.   A friend shared it with me and we've been so blessed by it. Thanks, Terri! :)
