Palm Sunday

I mentioned before that I was looking forward to adding new traditions this year.

On Palm Sunday, we started a countdown to Good Friday. On a black construction paper cross, six candles were lit. We extinguish one candle each day and on Good Friday the final candle would be extinguished.

At church, we each learned the story of Jesus riding the donkey into Jerusalem with the crowds waving palm branches yelling "Hosannah!". The boys were to take turns riding a "donkey" down the hallway while we wave construction paper palm branches yelling Hosannah!

BOTH of them were very embarrassed to play the role, even though it was just the four of us.

it must be overwhelming to pretend to be the King of Kings ;)
