I tend to feel very reflective on Easter weekend.\u00a0 Perhaps because it’s spring, or perhaps because every Easter seems to mark a milestone in my life.<\/p>\n

The past two Easters I’ve been in the Bay area, and enjoyed that long drive across the state alone–giving me time for reflection (I do love me a roadtrip!).\u00a0 But this year I’ll be with the kids again, which makes me pretty happy.\u00a0 Gameboy is home from college and I never do seem to have enough time with Catgirl.\u00a0 We’ll also be with a group of Friends<\/a>–sitting in silence and eating wholesome food and enjoying the mountains.<\/p>\n

I’ll be bringing along my good camera, to capture a few photos of daffodils as I wandel<\/em> around in the woods (that’s dutch for “walk”–isn’t that a great word?), and will post photos of this year’s Pysanky eggs as soon as they are revealed.<\/p>\n

What I wrote on Easter weekend in 2012:<\/p>\n

Last Easter weekend<\/a> was momentous for me–during my long drive to northern California I did a lot of important thinking, and made some significant decisions about what I wanted from my future.\u00a0 To see the consequences of decisions made that weekend play out in the year since, is a remarkable thing.<\/p>\n

Though I no longer celebrate a Christian holiday at this time of year, it remains an important time for renewal for me.\u00a0 A time for daffodils<\/a> and decision-making and peace.<\/p>\n

Image above is of the Pysanky eggs that Catgirl creates each year while at the Quaker Easter retreat.\u00a0 That she spends her Easter holiday among F\/friends makes me happy, even if it’s a time that she spends with her father and not with me.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
