Easter musings

Each year at Easter I keep my kids in their church clothes all day and set the scene perfectly so I can photograph them discovering their Easter baskets, hiding eggs, reading the Easter story, and having dinner. This year I decided to let them be. No directions from mom, no asking them to sit in a certain place or look in a particular direction, and *gasp* I even let them wear playclothes!

They loved it, and it gave me the chance to enjoy my "unposed life" with my family while keeping the focus on the true meaning of Easter: Jesus. It was a wonderful day.
