This week Samuel & I had some fun decorating Easter eggs... we had this egg coloring kit with stickers, outfits and hats to decorate eggs (as seen below), but I got this wonderful idea from a friends blog to go a bit further with egg decorating, and incorporate a (very simple) gospel message with the different colored eggs.
As Samuel had fun painting, coloring, adding glitter and sequins to the eggs, I explained to him what each color represented... and then afterwards, I got the camera out and filmed him as he in turn explained it back to me (with my help of course). Being a three year old, he really only remembered one or two words about each egg, but I was super proud of him because he did remember! I love all the opportunities God allows me to teach our son about Jesus, His wonderful love, and about how this Easter we remember His death and celebrate His resurrection. Praise be to God! :)
My precious boy... (I find him looking more & more grown up each day)
The final project...
And the video...
(we kinda had to rush through this version... the baby woke up was crying in the background!)

Oh, this is sooooo precious! It makes my heart rejoice to see this early evidence of Sammy's heart being softened toward God as you teach him and he begins to trust the Lord. I am so thankful that Sammy has parents that are so faithful to take every opportunity to talk about Jesus. You're the best!
