Passage of time

I'm beyond thankful for this blog and its assistance in documenting our family.  For some reason, the Easter egg pictures always make me nostalgic.  Through the candid shots this year I want to remember...
 
Lucy's pensive stare and her hair that, even after five years, is stubborn to thicken and grow long.
 Isaac and his monkey lovey and Lucy's awe at everything Rose says and does.
 all my babies around the same table, loving family time.
 Rose's purple fingernails and that grin she has for her Daddy.
 how Anna is cradling that egg so tenderly.
 that Thomas never wore a shirt around the house.  ;)  And he's still not too big to dye eggs with us.
 this father/son moment, and Lucy's proud big sister face.
 her sweetness, and that she loved hanging around the house in a gymnastics leotard.
 And, I wasn't kidding about the nostalgia.  I was looking at old pictures and found this.  It was two years ago that we dyed eggs and revealed our Bonus Baby's name.
