This is my first year celebrating Easter with some sort of religious background. In previous years it was just a reason to have a ham for dinner. I enjoy telling my kids about the Easter story and letting them know it’s not just about searching for eggs in the snowy backyard.
We were invited to have Easter dinner with another family in our ward that has kids the same age as ours, and I was happy to do that. Better to be with other people who believe the same things we do.
I find that Jayson and I want to be around other church members more and more these days since it seems easier to talk to people who share our beliefs.
When we got home, I asked Rachel to watch the kids so Jayson and I could have sex. A lot of mixed feelings about that. I don’t like scheduling sex, it’s a lot better if it can be spontaneous. But there has been so little spontaneous sex since my son was born I find we need to schedule it to make it happen. I also don’t like telling Rachel that we’re having sex, I feel like it’s none of her business. On the other hand, if I ask her to watch the kids and come up with any other random excuse for why, she’ll immediately know it’s so we can have sex. So I may as well just be honest.
