Angela,

You write beautifully! Our staff has a prayer & devotional time each morning and just today one of the pastors was talking about how we need to remember what exactly it is that the cross represents. As Christians, we become so accustomed to seeing crosses (in church, jewelry, t-shirts, etc.) that we almost become immune to the real meaning of the cross.

By the way, I grew up near the Brandywine Valley and it is gorgeous!

Beautifully written. I knew what the meaning of Easter was as a child, but my family never took the time to honor the day.
