Easter- the day for rebirth!

The holidays are a really big deal to me.  Really big.  I live to change my decor out for the seasons, I love entertaining and bringing together the ones I love.  Today is Easter Sunday and it's been more than a little difficult.  I have been torturing myself with memories of easter egg hunts that I tricked PC in to, and forced family fun days with his parents.  After a few painful and miserable conversations with him, I've decided to instead focus on the idea of rebirth. 

I was trying to start this paragraph in the very dramatic beginning to every 9th grade paper I wrote... "Rebirth is defined by Merriam Webster as:.." but I didn't like their definition.  Not dramatic enough.  So I searched and searched and found this one that I thought was more fitting; inspring even.  "A renewed existence, actvitiy or growth". Yeah, I like that.  And so after hours of crying and what ifs, I've decided instead to enjoy my day.  Yes, my life is not where I thought it would be; but, it is also not where it was, and that (channeling my demi-god Martha Stewart) is a good thing.
