I am not sure why we only took pictures of Ellie on Easter, but whatever. We had a wonderful Easter weekend, visiting family, learning more about the life, death and resurrection of our Savior and preparing to leave for Hawaii a few days later. On Easter morning, we were having a little family devotional, watching one of the LDS Bible videos on the Resurrection. Ellie had found a little plastic tape measure that I had been using the day before and started swinging it around. Before I could take it away from her, the plastic shell made contact with my eyebrow/eyelid area. I grabbed my face, in pain and when I pulled my hand a way I saw lots of blood. I ran into the bathroom to see the damage, leaving the rest of my family staring at me in shock. Once Matt washed all the blood off we could see a decent sized gash that hurt a lot. Matt pulled out his trusty liquid stitches and closed it up for me. I had a nice black eye for a few days. Thanks, Ellie. Note to self: always, always put away your tape measure.
We had a very nice rest of the day, going to church and visiting our families. I am so grateful for the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
