I love Easter and all that it means for us as Christians. Seriously, how awesome is it to have a day to celebrate Jesus and the hope that we have in Him…something that we should be celebrating every day.
But even on a day full of such hope, I can’t help but think about my baby girl and miss her like crazy. There is something about seeing all those adorable little girls in their Easter dresses that pulls at my heart strings. As I was looking through these pictures I was thinking about Cora’s first Easter. She had an adorable little navy blue floral Easter dress…one of my favorite dresses of hers. She would have fit just perfectly into our family picture with her navy blue.
We tried to get a brother picture.
It wasn’t very successful.
Levi would hold Griffin for about one second and then let go.
They sure are cute though…and they love each other so very much.
And then we tried to get all the cousins. Levi would not look up at the camera.
And when Griffin started screaming he just got up, patted him on the head, and walked away. Nice.
Gramps and Grammy intervened…but my children still didn’t cooperate. Oh well.
Levi went on his first egg hunt this year too.
We forgot his Easter basket at home so Levi and Dad ran to Walmart to get something for him to collect his eggs in. They came back with a pink camo bucket. I think he wore it well. 🙂
Levi was super excited about his candy.
He opened his eggs as fast as he could. I think even his Gramps was helping him shovel candy into his mouth.
Ellie tried to get the boys to pose for a picture but they were too busy opening their eggs.
I’m pretty sure he would have never stopped eating.
Amazingly, he hasn’t cared about his Easter candy too much this week…which means more for Mom and Dad to enjoy!
Maria-Too cute! I love seeing your boys together! We have 4 kids our big 2 are 13 and 10 and then we have a huge gap…with mateo 15months and baby #4 in the tummy baking. But we just found out its going to be another boy so to see Levi and Griffin is soooo cute especially because they are going to be the exact age gap as our 2 youngest! 🙂 Im a lil scared but excited!ReplyCancel
Sarah-Love the pictures. The boys looked super cute in their outfits. The screaming in the cousins picture just makes it all more memorable. You should see our family picture attempt. Our youngest refused to look at the camera! Glad you had a nice Easter!
onlymehere-One of my favorite pictures of my kids is when we were trying for a “special” photo and Travis was just doing his own thing! It makes me smile every time I look at it because it’s just the kind of kid he is, doing his own thing no matter what anyone else does! I hope you cherish these pictures and smile when you see them forever!ReplyCancel
Auntie EM-So sweet….those children are all so adorable. My grandson Braxton is two next month so I saw some of the same things: eating candy as soon as the egg was found, running around to find more, loving the bubble machine his parents gave him, looking so cute in his cute clothes. Whew!! It made Grandma tired but it was a beautiful, joyful, poignant day for me and it looks like it was for your family too. I’m glad you have all those wonderful memories of your daughter. She is proud of her parents and her brothers.ReplyCancel
Mum2twopreciousgifts-I love the Gramps and Grammy photo. I laughed. Isn’t it wonderful when photos reflect the personality of our little folk. Particularly when all we parents want is ONE nice photo of everyone sitting up, facing the front and smiling?
Love, love, love the photos Jess. Beautiful!ReplyCancel
Selena-Your sweet family is just lovely. I always enjoy your posts. We, too, have two little boys. Our youngest will be two the end of this month, and our oldest will be four the end of May. This Easter was the first family pic we’ve ever taken where everyone was looking the same direction… it will get easier! 🙂
I’m sure your heart still aches for sweet Cora, and how you must long for her at special family holidays, esp. I am thankful for Easter and what it means. The HOPE that it provides is beautiful!
Rob and Andrea-Sweet, sweet boys Jess! Happy Easter to your family! FYI ~ Your boys made Facebook today! I “Like” a FB page called “I <3 Being a Mom" and saw a picture posted of your two sweethearts in their Halloween costumes this year. I am guessing the photo came from Pinterest or maybe your blog?! Regardless, I recognized their adorable faces immediately as belonging to Levi and Griffin!ReplyCancel
L ~ S-I just love Griffin’s tummy in the pic! Cute pictures and I like the matchiness. I wanted to do that this year, but it seemed too cold to wear ‘Easter’ clothes…Thanks for sharing about your day!ReplyCancel
Mandy-So cute! I have to tell ya that I have been following you since things happened with Cora and I can’t tell you how much I have loved getting to know your beautiful family. Easter is one of my very favorite holidays. I love everything it represents and the peace that it offers if we just pay attention.
As a side note, I look on pinterest every once in awhile and the last few times it seems like I always come across pictures of your boys. You always have the best photo ideas and apparently he world thinks so too because your ideas are pinned all over the place!ReplyCancel
Mindee@ourfrontdoor-I wish I had been as laid back as you are about pictures when my kids were little. I would get SO bent out of shape when I couldn’t get the “perfect” shot and just let it ruin my day. I love your “true to life” photos so much.ReplyCancel

As I have been preparing to share my story again tonight, {Please pray for me if you think of it!!} I have been noticing a theme of looking in our lives for victory. That word “victory” has been stuck in my head. My grief story is really a story of victory. It could have been just a story of death and heartache and despair. But because I serve a Living God, it is a story of victory and hope. It is the story of how the Lord has shown me that even a mama who has lost her precious daughter can live an abundant life through the power of the Cross.
And guess what? I have noticed this theme of victory in so many places over the past few weeks.
At BSF we have been studying the passage in Ephesians 6 about training for battle against the enemy and putting on the armor of God. My notes talked about how Satan is working so hard to cause us to doubt God’s love for us and the goodness of His will for us. Because of Satan’s attacks we need to be ready and find strength in the Lord,
In order to fight one must be strong. There must be a strengthening of body and mind, and a determination to win that has its source in the full assurance that VICTORY is possible.
Another part of my notes said,
Has he planted thoughts in your mind that God made you to have an easy life without obstacles, hard work, or challenging situations? Actually, the easy life is empty, boring, frustrating, unsatisfying, fruitless, and meaningless; it is contrary to the essential character God planned for us. God created us with the desire to meet and overcome obstacles, to enjoy the fruit of success after toil, and to feel the thrill of adventure in full confidence that He is with us and will lead us to share VICTORY with Him.
A few days before Easter, my sister-in-law sent me this song and I loved it. As I listened to the words and meditated on the incredible sacrifice that Jesus made for me I was struck by the last words of the chorus.
O the blood of Jesus washes me
O the blood of Jesus shed for me
What a sacrifice that saved my life
Yes, the blood, it is my VICTORY
I loved thinking about celebrating the victory that we have in Jesus as we celebrated Easter this year. And it is because of His blood, because of His incredible sacrifice that saved my life, that I am able to have victory in the challenges that I face in my life today.
On Sunday I flipped open the bulletin as I sat down and the title of the sermon was When was the Gospel victorious? The Gifts of the Resurrection. Our pastor taught from 1 Corinthians 15. It is a great sermon. You can listen to it here. Because of the resurrection, we are given the opportunity to put our complete trust during this life in the Risen One and live in full assurance of eternal life. VICTORIOUS.
Wow. That is a lot of my random thoughts jumbled together. But don’t you love when the Lord is teaching you something and it keeps popping up everywhere you go? That is how it has been for me as I have been pondering what victory looks like in my own life.
Praise God for the victory we can have in Jesus. It is through the power of the resurrection that we as Christians are able to claim victory in whatever challenges or hardships we are facing. Is there an area in your life that you need to give to Jesus, depend on His strength, and claim His victory in today?
Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him who loved us. Romans 8:37 (Amplified Bible)
* * * * * * *
Oh, and one more thing…I felt like I didn’t do a very good job of making time for everything I wanted to do to teach Levi about Easter. No victory there. But a wise woman, whose kids are already grown, told me that I should just keep teaching Levi about Easter even past Sunday. She said that as adults we feel like we need to just pack everything up and move on once Easter Sunday is over, but kids don’t know the difference. So true. We should be thinking about Jesus’ work in our lives through His death and resurrection all throughout the year anyway. It is that important. So we are going to finish up our Resurrection Eggs, keep out the He is Risen banner, keep our Easter Mountain on the table and keep talking about Easter even though it is “technically” over. Just thought I would pass those wise words on to you in case you were discouraged about not having time for everything like I was! Hope you had a wonderful Easter celebrating our Risen Lord!
Anonymous -When I saw the title of your post I thought for sure you were going to be talking about getting little Griffin to sleep through the night! 🙂 ~MelissaReplyCancel
Tami-some of the best discussions i’ve had with my peeps were long after the easter baskets were packed away. in fact, one year anna was still asking questions about jesus dying on the cross when we were swimming 😉ReplyCancel
Lyssa at Living Simple in the South-thank you so much for sharing this i too am discouraged about not doing our ressurection eggs and using our new ‘easter story” book to go with them and i needed to hear the thought to do it anyway, i dont know why i didnt think of that, but it is so true! ally is NOT sleeping through the night yet is griffin…i am about to fall asleep right now, but i need some mommy time and i need to clean the kitchen! saying a prayer for you and your heart tonight, someone once told me you just have to show up and God will do the rest! so, just show up and share your victorious story and he will have someone there that needs to hear it! much love jes, thanks for always sharing! lyssReplyCancel
Anonymous -Your words encourage me so much. Thanks for writing and sharing so deeply and honestly. Thanks too for the words about teaching long past the “holiday” is over. I smiled and thought, “That’s so right. Why didn’t I think of that?” . Blessings, Jen Harnett (From Canada)ReplyCancel
Mel-I have been following your blog for quite a while. Thank you so much for these beautiful thoughts. It was just what I needed. Your family is beautiful! Thank you for sharing Cora’s life with so many. One day you will understand and see how many people your cute little family have touched and I know for certain it will be more than you can imagine. Thank you so much! You are an inspiring Wife, Mother and Christian!ReplyCancel
DianeTaylor-I read this post and I really tried to believe in the “victory” concept. I really want to. I want to keep Satan away – but since my son died on March 1st, I am so shattered and broken. In a million pieces that just don’t fit back together anymore. I feel like I am walking down a steep staircase – and the bottom is covered in a thick smoke so I can’t see the bottom. Ugh! I hate this so much. Where is the Diane I knew before this happened? I thought Easter and it’s wonderful message of hope would help – but I just feel empty inside. I am clinging to Jesus today – and counting the days until I can see my beloved son again.ReplyCancel
Andy and Cari-loved this post. I too have been thinking over tghe past few years of trial…but not with the clouded eyes of dispair…of thankfulness. I have been searching and trying to see what God has taught and evaluating if I have really appied it… or if he will have to teach me again… gulp! we disscussed what an abundant life looks like on Sunday… and I consider mine, Caden’s death included, abundant… all because of Jesus|!ReplyCancel
Auntie EM-Very wise words….so true that you can keep teaching children after the holiday. I love your “victory” theme. The best victory was the Savior’s victory over death. Death has no sting for His believers. I know He saved us from our sins but also from death. We will all die someday but I know we will live again. Those we love who have passed on from this life are not lost to us permanently. Their memories live on, they are still themselves, and we will be with them again. Our Savior also made it possible for us to be healed from all our infirmities, including our heartache and sorrow. He made it possible for us to find joy in this life and certainly in the next, too. He is merciful and His grace is sufficient for us if we simply do what He wishes for us to do: serve Him by serving others, love, forgive, be grateful, and be the best we can be. I only know you through your blog but I find myself saying, wow, this young woman who has been through the most difficult trial a parent could go through is so strong, so resilient, so faithful, and sets such a high bar for the rest of us because of her testimony and love for her Savior, her family, and friends. You are a wonderful example and deserve all life’s choicest blessings. May that happen in your life and the lives of your husband and sons. You amaze me!!!ReplyCancel

Griffin’s half birthday came and went and we didn’t even celebrate…I was too busy being sick. Bummer. We will just have to celebrate big when he turns one instead! I can’t believe six months have gone by already. Here is Griffin at six months (a little late).
It is a miracle that I got this six month picture…
…because the rest of his pictures looked more like this. I would set Griffin down, get up on the chair and pick up my camera…and by that time he had already flipped over. He is my first baby to be able to roll over from his back to his stomach. He is all over the place…a crazy rolling baby.
And if he wasn’t rolling over he was busy eating the six month flash card. I have a feeling that once this boy starts crawling I might have my hands full.
Dear Griffers,
You have now spent a half year with us now and we are so in love with you. Actually, the past month has been a little rough (we still love you lots though). You got sick for the first time with ear infections, bronchitis, and thrush all right in a row. And Mama was sick too. Not fun. You are still not sleeping through the night, but you are getting a little better. And we are having to do a little sleep training around here lately which is hard on a mama’s heart. I am praying that month seven will be the month of good sleeping!!
You started eating cereal this month. Let’s just say you were not a fan. You spit it out every time and pierced your lips as tight as you could when the spoon got near your mouth. Your doctor said maybe you are hungry and we need to get you eating more foods. Let’s hope you like fruits and vegetables better than your cereal.
You are so wiggly. You are my first baby who can roll from your back to tummy. Way to go! You roll over the second I set you down anywhere. You are wiggly and it is getting hard to even get you dressed. You are sitting up too, but still with help from pillows. I think you are too wiggly to keep your balance. 🙂 You like sitting up to play and you love your walker too.
You love your brother. You are much more content when he is nearby. He brings you toys and shoves your pacifier in your mouth when you need it. He is always wondering how you are doing and where you are. If you are screaming in the car he looks over and yells at you to have a happy heart. A sweet brotherly bond already.
onlymehere-I’ve followed you for a long time and this post just tugged at my heart strings. How can it already be six months?! You have such adorable kids and I have enjoyed so much your creativity with them and your faith. Thank you and happy six-month birthday Griffin!ReplyCancel
Katy @ Live Laugh Love Craft-Soo stinkin’ cute! I love how you call him Griffers. 🙂 Think it’s time to update your blog header to include the 6 month old cutie. 🙂ReplyCancel
Mindy Harris-i love griffin!!! it meant so much to me to get to see him and you at the cottage! i really try to contain myself, but, honey, he is just THE CUTEST!! so amazing. i hope you guys are feeling better. and yes, sleep training is so so sad and hard to do.ReplyCancel
Meggie-He is sooo cute! And he reminds me so much of my youngest baby boy who turns 7 months today. =) My little man is wiggling and rolling and scooting all over the place! Happy 6 months, Griffin!ReplyCancel
Bekah-I love his big happy smile! Such a cute little dude! My youngest will be six months on saturday, so I understand the bewilderment at how fast the time is going!!ReplyCancel
Auntie EM-What a little cute doll. I love the chubby baby legs and arms. So sorry you were sick and your baby, too. Hope you have a wonderful, joyful Easter. We have so much to be thankful and grateful for but I think you already know that. I pray God’s grace and love is with you always. You are a wonderful person (and creative!!) and I can see in your blogs and pictures how much love you have for you sons, daughter, and husband. Cora is smiling down on her brothers and parents with love.ReplyCancel
Selena-I can’t believe it’s been six months… he’s precious, and looks so content and happy. I’m sorry he still isn’t sleeping… the other night I was thinking of you as I turned my son’s noise maker on. I was wondering if something like that might work for Baby Griffin… it’s the life-saver at our house, and goes with us when we travel to hotels, family’s house, etc. Just a thought. 🙂
I look forward to watching him grow! And by the way, we call our Emmitt, “Emmers”… LOVE it!! xo
Miss G-Hi Jess, we introduced solids to our little guy with an approach called Baby Led Weaning. There’s a book that I checked out of the library or you can get on amazon. I don’t know if it’s something you’d want to try or if it would help Griffin like solids better but just thought I’d mention it in case.
We had to do some sleep training too and it was hard but after two months of that my guy is the BEST sleeper! There is hope!! Take care, KellyReplyCancel
Paula from NY -Happy Half birthday Griffin! I have been enjoying getting to know you these past 6 months, just as I have enjoyed getting to know big brother Levi.. I love seeing pictures and hearing stories of your every day lives.. Sending hugs to you and your sweet family! <3ReplyCancel
Aja-Sweet boy!! Good luck on the sleep training- it is hard. 🙁 And I’m cracking up imagining Levi yelling “have a happy heart!” at poor Griffin. Hilarious!ReplyCancel
May -He is just the loveliest baby,,, babies and toddlers, and children are wonderful gifts from God xxx Regarding cereal….take it from a mom of 3, my boys hated it…my baby (15 months ) hates any processed ready made food,,, he loves Eggs ( i make half boiled eggs === you live on a farm, so you’re the luckiest with the healthiest and yummiest eggs), he eats home made chicken veggie soup mixed either with rice or oats… I make Giant batches and freeze them into individual portions,,, maybe he would like mamas home made food… also my babies all loved Fruit (pears, apples) and sweet potatoes (the only store bought prepped food they dared eat. So relax, im sure he will love something, they dont have to all eat rice cereal (have you tried it? It is soooooo plain) Nothing in comparison to Milk (formula or moms).ReplyCancel
Cindy-I am going to start using that… “have a happy heart.” my almost-two-year-old is going through a VERY whiny stage and I think he needs to hear that. Hopefully it works!ReplyCancel
Brooke Ramsey-I am a new follower of your blog and I really look forward to reading it! Just wanted to let you know, you aren’t alone. My baby boy just turned 8 months and isn’t sleeping through the night. It’s been rough! We started sleep training about 2 weeks ago and it is improving but still wakes up a couple times. Praying for God’s strength for the both of us!ReplyCancel
Dana at StrawberryTart!-That is so funny! I just took my daughter’s six month pictures and she kept flipping. I had to ask my husband to help. She has become a more difficult supject to capture – she is rolling and moving all over the place too.ReplyCancel

I can’t see all of my comments in Blogger anymore…which is why I STILL haven’t posted the winners of the sarah + abraham giveaway (sorry!).
Blogger changed up the comments page and now I can only see comments 1-200. There used to be a button you clicked on that would take you to another page that showed comments 201-400. Now there is no button. I can’t find anyway to see comments over 200. Unless I am missing something…which is totally possible.
I tried changing the comments page so it wasn’t embedded…didn’t work. I tried googling it…no answers.
Courtney Tadich -I have tried numerous times to leave comments for you and I can never see them!!!! I placed a comment for the giveaway but didn’t know if you got it or not. Thanks,
