Poor Jonas

Jonas is sick with hand, foot and mouth virus and he is miserable. I have never encountered this before but he has sores all over his body especially in his mouth and feet. We went to the beach for the Easter weekend which was good as it kept his attention from not feeling good. It's difficult for him to eat but he wants to eat everything... he just can't, it hurts to badly. He will put food in his mouth excited and then starts screaming and spits it out. It's just so sad! You hate to see your little one so helpless. 
Our Easter was nice and laid back, even though we had to miss church.  I just couldn't stop thinking how thankful I am for our Savior. The pain he must of endured on that cross for all of us... and for God to have to watched his son suffer... just as we are with our sweet Jonas. It helps me put it into perspective what a gift God has given and sacrificed for us. To know Jesus arose 3 days later with not even a scratch on him is just amazing to see the wonderful power God has. Even though Jonas' first Easter wasn't the best, it's one that will remind us to be thankful for our Lord that has given us eternal life through the biggest sacrifice... his beloved son. 


"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

John 3:16

Yes, Jonas loves Ernie... really ANY Sesame Street character especially Elmo.

This is a golf club headcover that he chose to love on:) 

I will post Easter pictures as soon as I find my camera ... it's missing... hopefully not lost???
