The boys (and I) were looking forward to it for weeks, and I was a little nervous that it was going to be cold, but viola! Beautiful warm weather, sunny skies, and all signs of illness gone from our house.

I am feeling so much better, gaining more energy every day and needing to rest a bit less every day. I&#8217;m getting there! The boys enjoyed an egg hunt in our back yard, played in the water, and helped with the veggie garden. Andrew added play sand to the sand box we dug out for them last year and Emil spent most of his afternoon playing and burying himself in the sand while singing sweetly to no one in particular.\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5478\/13934858941_c5fce37142_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0034\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5032\/13958011093_87acd0e783_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0027\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2937\/13958023033_b71538a792_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0036\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>A sweet package from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonthemeep.blogspot.com\/?zx=d042e3bf46a88883\" target=\"_blank\">Allison<\/a>&#8211; made me laugh and feel so special.
