aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh

What a glorious Easter morning. And how is it that I can't get through an Easter morning without being overwhelmed with emotions? When you really take a few moments to ponder the true meaning of Easter and what happened 2010 years ago so that we might experience life, and experience it to the full, I don't think you can deny your emotions overtaking you. He died for me. That is what hits me so hard on Easter each year. For me. (Oh, and by the by, for you, and for every single person on earth that He created.) What love. Thank you for the grace and mercy and love. Not to mention superstar sharing her testimony that is so cool to listen to knowing what has brought her to where she is, and being in love with her for so many years now.

The title of the post refers to the true vacation that continues today. Huge thanks to harry and donna for being the best hosts evar. What a beautiful place to stay, enjoy the girls, the beach, golf, water slides, food for kings, dq, shuffleboard and much much more. And a new route down 95 that I have to say is much more exciting than Ohio. Sorry panks. Anyone that is fortunate enough to spend a week in a place that has palm trees is pretty darn fortunate in my opinion. And we even don't have school until Wednesday. Today, some of our nyc chums are coming here for "Easter Dinner". This is Brooklyn style, and it will be different, but we are happy to host.

-Upcoming Events that you could anticipate blog posts on:

*This Wednesday night, I will meet with another school board for a potential principal position in Queens. Pray.*

*My nugget cousin will be here in just about a day and a half, and we are so excited that she is coming to visit!!!*

Alright. So you're sitting in front of your computer right now. And you're saying to yourself at about 8:00 pm: "Huh. It's been dark out for nearly three and a half hours now. What else can we do for fun?" Well, sir, we have the answer. Take a look at this.

Righteous or Unrighteous?

Today, as I thoroughly enjoyed my walk to the school, I pondered quite a few things, as I often do on my walk. Sometimes I pray for people like Hammy, Jimmer, sick pete, mg, cdubs, pastor, beary, and the like. But today, I simply reveled in the fact that God loves me. As I watched the snow melting away, I could see the dirt and garbage left behind throughout my walk. I think of how God melts away our dirt and our garbage. How he longs to be in relationship with us, and how he cleanses our sins from existence. As the sun rose, I couldn't help but think of the verse I read this morning in Matthew 5:45 - "...that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." I pondered if Jesus was walking with me, which of the above categories would HE put me in? I'm pretty sure the unrighteous one at times. But yet he still walks with me and leads my steps. He brings the heat ...

Casa de Kelly - a nice place to dine.

It has been a challenging week for me personally. Struggling with some things personal in nature, nothing that I need to go into, but just working hard to keep my chin up. But encouragement comes to me through others that follow God. Thanks to sick Pete for his encouragement to me this week. Thanks to BK for his prayers and vulnerability. But my biggest thanks goes out to the kkft. After a tough week, I got an email yesterday from superstar saying she was hoping to take me out to dinner for drinks, conversation, and even dessert. But no sitter. So her and the girls were working on 'casa de kelly' restaurant in our apartment. I am almost certain it was the best restaurant I have ever visited in my life. Candlelight, mexican food and latin music, time to sit and chat with my wife, the girls serving us and giving us privacy (even had the taboo buzzer to call them when we needed something :)), it was my best night of the year by far. But perhaps the biggest part of the n...
