One of the things that makes military families different from other families is that we learn to be incredibly flexible. Things are always changing and we adjust. When it comes to holidays, our family would sometimes change holiday dates in order to celebrate certain special moments together. We’ve done it so much over the years that it is now second nature. The importance is family, tradition, and togetherness — not the calendar.
We’re putting this to practice this year as well. Easter is simply not convenient today. (Dad has a client he’s with today; Paul is in NOLA working on the house.) So, we’ll celebrate next weekend when we all can be together (minus Kate, who we hope will enjoy the holiday floating in my belly).
Easter Bunny, please take note.
