Scrap it All (Part1)

In my house, we love to celebrate the fun and family the holiday offers. But most importantly we take purposful pause to redirect and remember what Easter is all about… True Love… Rescue… Jesus. Here are a few books we love to read together around Easter time. We know you and your children will enjoy them, as well. For the Littles: We love JellyTelly and What’s in the Bible with Buck Denver.
