Easter is a doubly speical occassion in our home, Our youngest was born on Easter 1992 and choosing a name for her was pretty easy, her Mom, my Wife is Mary and that's a pretty special Chrtistian name as the mother of Jesus. We chose to name our daughter after her mother and the most devoted follower of Christ so she is Mary Madelyn.

Tomorrow we will attend church service then head over to a friend's restuarant for brunch, there will be 6 of us as my niece will be joining us too. (Natalie - you guessed it born at Christmas!) Seemed like a good idea to give Mom a rest this year. Next weekend will be the Eastern Orthodox Easter on the old calendar and my wife's family will have a huge meal on Sunday made by the best cook I know, my mother-in-law.

Happy Easter to all,
