You Capture: Easter

I posted some pictures of the kids in their Easter Sunday outfits last week. Saturday was a busy day of Easter activities. Mid-morning we went outside and played with bubbles and waited and waited.

The dream caused me to sit straight up in bed and I could barely breathe. I struggled to figure out what was happening and process the image in my head.
