HAPPY EASTER, EVERYONE!!!

I promise, today’s post is short and sweet, because today shouldn’t be a day of reading blog posts. Today should be a day of celebration! Our Lord and Savior has RISEN!

But I just wanted to throw out a couple things to do today, since today is so special. :D

will chocolate be on this list? maybe

Watch a live-streamed Mass or church service.

Since a lot of churches are closing, it’s not very realistic to go to Easter Mass anymore. :( But if your parish or congregation is going to stream their Easter service, watch it with your family! This is a perfect time to attend. <3

Say some prayers with your family. 

Easter is a time of joy, and what better way to combine family and faith than by praying together. It doesn’t matter if it’s something short, like three Our Fathers, or an entire Rosary, or something longer. Whatever works best for you!

FaceTime some family or friends. 

Since large family gatherings probably aren’t going to happen for most of us this year, video-call your grandparents or aunts and uncles! Even call your friends, if you want to. :D

Eat some chocolate.

Or some other food that you love. Our forty days of Lent have ended. It’s no longer a time of fasting - it’s a time to celebrate! Obviously don’t overeat or anything - some moderation is still important. ;)

Stay off social media.

Yes, Lent just ended, and a lot of us are probably eager to get back on YouTube or Instagram. (I know I’ve been missing my TwoSetViolin.) But hold off for one more day and celebrate our Lord’s Resurrection offline. You made it through forty days - one more shouldn’t make a difference. And all those posts and videos will most likely still be there on Monday. :)

Anyways, I hope you all have a very happy and blessed Easter! <3 <3

and don't worry, next week's post will be as long as ever ;)
