Wisconsin Easter Egg Hunt
















I'm having trouble differentiating between what is for me and what are decorations. No matter! I will eat seven malted milk ball eggs before church.

To Do List
















Wheelbarrow needs fixin'. Gotta put another coat of paint on the garage, reinforce the roof in the back. Get the garden planted. Learn to poop in a toilet. Clear out the blackberry patch. Paint a couple of rooms in the house. Figure out how to say the word "cat". Put some new boards on the deck, put some J-channel where the siding hits the roof on the house. Transition to a Big Boy bed.

It's going to be quite a summer, lot of hard work.
