Eggs and Chicks

I'm taking a break from the Roman Holiday today.  I may post more on that later, but today we dyed eggs.  Our eggs were pretty colorful before:

but now they're even prettier:

And look at how the chicks have grown!

Today we discussed the meaning of Good Friday, and I was impressed by how much the boys have remembered.  Yesterday we talked about the last supper, and they were able to tell me about that, too.  They are really absorbing the biblical lessons better than I thought they would.

Now I'd better serve dinner.  The troops are hungry!
