February 25th started the Lenten season. I gave up Diet Sodas because that was a true sacrifice for me. But it's not about all that.
The candy aisles are stocked with many delectable treats; and just as on all the other main stream holidays, we will buy a few bags because who can pass up malted eggs at Easter? But it's not about all that.
The babes are all excited about hunting Easter eggs and what they will find when they pop open the plastic shells. But it's not about all that.
Every major department store will have major sales on sweet, smocked dresses and precious, navy pants so we, especially the kids, can look just perfect for Easter Sunday church. But it's not about all that.
We will, once again, practice the annual family traditions, especially the grub! But it's not about all that.
Here's what it's all about...
