Around the corner...

Easter is just around the corner. It's one of my favorite holidays. I associate the words "joy", "hope", "renewal", and "love" with Easter. How could you not adore a holiday that you think of in those terms? I like to send my kids and grandkids little love packages on holidays. I wish our family could be together on all the holidays, but they are spread from one coast to the other, so getting together for every holiday is just not possible. Instead, I often send them little care packages to let them know we love them and are thinking of them. I thought I'd show you what I'm sending our granddaughters this year. Yup, each one will get a little "cupcake" with little trinkets and jelly beans inside the eggs. I've always enjoyed making the Easter basket part of the gift. I like it to be something they can use after, so this little cupcake tote fits the bill perfectly. I think I'll get the grandsons a little sand bucket this year and fill it with little boy things. Should be fun putting these together...
