Jesus on the Cross


I've carried this  little piece of paper folded in my wallet for 17 or 18 years now.  It's something I treasure, even more at this time of year.  My Girl drew it for me as an Easter gift when she was four or five - I wish I'd written the date on the back. 

The thing I love the most about it is this:  we had just talked about what a painful death our Lord endured.  I couldn't help but notice that she drew Him with a smile on His face.  When I asked her about that, she replied, "Mommy, He's smiling because He was glad to do it for us."

He was glad to do it for us.  For you. Happy Easter - He is Risen!!!

  2. Once again, I am driven here by your FUNNY comment on Big Mama's blog!!

    But, on a serious note now *clearing throat* --this is such a SWEET SWEET picture. I would carry it in my mama purse, too!

    P.S. I love your humor!
