There was a time when Easter felt like magic.

New dresses laid out the night before. White shoes worn just once a year. The smell of ham in the oven after church.

Baskets filled with chocolate bunnies, jellybeans, and just enough surprise to make you believe in something wonderful.

And at the center of it all… family.

But as life moves forward, holidays begin to change. The tables look different. The traditions shift. And sometimes, the joy is held alongside something heavier—grief.

In this heartfelt episode of Life in the A-Zone, Peggy reflects on the beauty of Easter memories while navigating the quiet ache of what has been lost. Through storytelling and reflection, she explores what it means to hold both joy and grief at the same time—and how, even in the midst of change, love remains.

This episode includes a special revisit of A Basket of Memories, a deeply personal story that captures the spirit of Easter, past and present.

Whether you are celebrating, remembering, or simply getting through the day, this episode is a gentle reminder:

You are not alone.

And sometimes, in the middle of it all…there is still a Pink Cloud Moment waiting.
