We set up her little table in the middle of the kitchen, lined up cups with the egg dye, and set out the bowl of eggs waiting for their new spring outfits. This year, she got to do the coloring all by herself. She is four after all. How big a mess could she really make. After dropping one egg in each cup, she picked up one that was still in its white dress, gave it a big hug and told me she was just going to decorate it with stickers. "Lolo, I am just putting a cross on this one. That is what we remember this weekend, that Jesus died on the cross. He lives in heaven now you know."
Sweet innocent truth. Thank you Mattie May.
