Now that Easter is over, Jenna Olwin can resume posting about Harry Potter again, which she gave up for Lent (though she seemingly fell off the wagon with this post about the new book's cover, since she did it on a Sunday it doesn't count).Did you know that although Easter is very much a Christian holiday, that the word "Easter" is taken from an old pagan goddess of dawn who was also named "Easter"?
I've never seen much use to the holiday, personally. I mean, the resurrection of Jesus is something that Christians are supposed to draw hope from every day of the year... so why focus that hope on just one?
Okay, 'nuff thoughts about Easter for this year. I mostly just did this post to show off the cool Spider-Man candy egg that Dad found and got for me :-)

lol! I'm very happy to be posting about Harry Potter again. Forty days is a long time.
Maybe the point of the Easter holiday is to remind us regularly to draw hope from the resurrection every day :-)
