Do Your Ears Hang Low?


Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you throw them o'er your shoulder
Like a Continental Soldier?
Do your ears hang low?

Another lonely holiday far away from family and friends. Compared to last, this year I at least knew where to find a ham for dinner along with other traditional favorites. We even joined the Finnish culture and had pussy willows, grass, and colored feathers throughout the house for decoration. We were kindly invited to join an Easter Egg hunt and cookout Saturday. The boys filled their baskets with chocolates, candies, and toys. We have another hunt scheduled for next weekend too!



















Our other Easter festivities included touring the Post Museum to view their collection of Easter post cards dating back to 1890 and a boat ride to the island of Suomenlinna to see an Easter Egg Exhibition at the church. We also dyed dozens of eggs thanks to Grandma!
