Happy Easter! Despite the lack of family around to celebrate and have a big meal together, we had a fun family day. The easter bunny left tons of eggs hidden around our yard. Everyone was up at 7 am for the hunt. He left the baskets in a silly place outside and chomped on all the carrots we left out. We had a lovely lunch in the sun and trekked off to the zoo. It was a glorious day and we giggled a bunch together. Mostly Marc and I giggled as we distracted the boys from things we didn't want to discuss (rhino boy parts, rednecks...)
At bedtime I read the Story of Easter to the boys. They were super serious about it. Really taking in each page. as we closed the book and looked at one another, Wills says "so what's the deal with the bunny? What does he have to do with Jesus?" Then Ben said "yeah. what does the bunny have to do with Jesus? Is it just a Spring thing or were bunnies involved?" ummmmm "love you. Have sweet dreams..."
*another really funny thing that we snorted about for a while. The brand new fancy Decatur sign has a "p" missing. It reads "decatur, a community of homes, schools,... laces of worship." Ben was really giggling about the possibility of a bunch of people singing the praises of laces. We came up with a lot of fun lyrics. (think Josh Grobin--"you lace me up...)
