Never This Early Again
=======================
This dating of Easter is based on the lunar calendar that
Hebrew people used to identify Passover, which is why it moves
around on our Roman calendar.
Found out a couple of things you might be interested in.
Based on the above, Easter can actually be one day earlier
(March 22) but that is pretty rare.
This year is the earliest Easter any of us will ever see the
rest of our lives! And only the most elderly of our population
have ever seen it this early (95 years old or above!). And none
of us have ever, or will ever, see it a day earlier!
Here are the facts:
The next time Easter will be this early (March 23) will be the
year 2228 (220 years from now). The last time it was this
early was 1913 (so if you're 95 or older, you are the only
ones who were around for that!).
The next time it will be a day earlier, March 22, will be in
the year 2285 (277 years from now). The last time it was on
March 22 was 1818. So no one alive today has, or ever will see
Easter any earlier than this year!

Whose Child is
This?
=====================
Whose child is this?
I asked one
day
Seeing a little one outside at play.
"Mine," said the parent
With a
tender smile,
"Mine" to keep a little while.
To bathe him and comb his
hair,
To prepare him that he may always be good
And each day do the things
he should.
Whose child is this?
I asked again
As the door opened
and someone came in.
"Mine," said the teacher
With a tender
smile,
"Mine" to keep just for a little while.
To teach him how to be
gentle and kind
And get the best he can from school.
Whose child is
this?
I asked once more
Just as the little one entered the door
"Ours,"
said the parent and the teacher as they smiled.
And each took a hand of the
little child
"Ours" to love and nurture together
Ours this blessed task
forever.

Need a Haircut
A pastor, known for his lengthy sermons, noticed a man get up and leave during the middle of his message. The man returned just before the conclusion of the service.
Afterward the pastor asked the man where he had gone."I went to get a haircut," was the reply.
"But," said the pastor, "why didn't you do that before the service started?"
"Because," the gentleman said, "I didn't need one then."

It might help if you are over 60; this is no 'pushover'.
Still trying to figure this out here. We have been getting snow. This is twice this week and that is strange for Texas but, I guess it is true in what they say if you don't like the weather here just wait a few minutes and it will change. I thought that I would change the color to make it easier to read. We now have a few inches of snow on the ground. The snow flakes were really huge and so pretty falling. Looked like cotton balls falling from the sky. Now we have a light snow here. My hubby took some pictures so, I may put them on here later. Not much going on just cold, snowy, and we are staying in where it is warm.
Here it goes!! My first post on Vox. It is late and I am about to go to bed. I have some things to do around here tomorrow. Laundry for one and some more cleaning. I started on the cleaning tonight. My hubby will be taking some time off and we will be re-organizing and doing some spring cleaning and give away things that we don't wear and or use anymore. Hopefully build some things for my craft stuff. Some shelves. I am excited and looking forward to it. :)
Very good my dear, Pink Panther MOM read more
