Easter

June and Gavin after the big hunt (June needs a nap)
Colouring eggs with Daddy

Well, I think June is sold on the whole Easter idea.
She loved the candy, the eggs, the baskets, the hunt.
This was her first real candy encounter, so needless to say, any other food is way down on the totem pole now!
I never understood what the point of Hollow Easter Bunnies was. Hollow? What a let down.
But as a parent, you look at it completely differently! Thank goodness for hollow bunnies! Who needs a solid chocolate bunny in addition to all of that other candy?
Jeff and I had to sneak candy away from her as it is! No, you always had only 3 jelly beans in your basket June, you're crazy.
We did an egg hunt over at my Dad's on Saturday morning and then we did a second at my Mom's on Easter. June really understood the concept of finding them, which was cool. She had so many eggs, she was dragging her basket along behind her! Every once in a while, she'd lose an egg from her basket, and turn around and see it, thinking "Cool, another one!"

She didn't like her dress or shoes much, she kicked and screamed and rolled around on the ground. I suppose we all feel like that some days.......

What a wonderful story, Mom!
You and Daddy are real troopers, and the grandparents, as well.
I'm so homesick right now. Missing our little angel and her parents.

Thank you so very much for posting this. Love it.
