Easter may seem boring to children, and it is blessedly unencumbered by the silly fun that plagues Christmas. Yet it contains the one thing needful for every human life: the good news of Resurrection.

Easter tells us of something children can't understand, because it addresses things they don't yet have to know: the weariness of life, the pain, the profound loneliness and hovering fear of meaninglessness.
Easter is not limited to the passion and death of Christ; it also includes the dismal tragedy of life unlived by the many, and all the loss of passion and truth that goes with it.
Easter is meant to be a symbol of hope, renewal, and new life.
Here is the amazing thing about Easter; the Resurrection Sunday for Christians is this, that Christ in the dying moments on the cross gives us the greatest illustration of forgiveness possible.

There would be no Christmas if there was no Easter.

To a Christian, Easter Sunday means everything, when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Easter is one of my favorite holidays with the kids. They get to run loose, and we always have our family and loved ones all around us!
