This Easter was not even close to being a favorite of mine.
It was so cold and rainy. Egg hunts were moved inside--which are not real egg hunts to me--and I had a boy who's continued naughty behavior kept him in his room the entire morning and most of the afternoon. It was sad for me and him both.
We did have a nice morning with Aunt Amy, Eli, Gigi, and Grandpa J. Lucas got to go to the store with Grandpa J--any outing with him is a treat--and I'm pretty sure Josh has eaten almost twice his weight in candy! I don't think I ever really saw him without something in his mouth!
I really had higher hopes for this Easter, but you got to take what you get. The boys had a good time and that is really all that matters. Before baths I even heard Henry say, "It sure was a fun day!" I'm hoping he was only talking about the two hours at Aunt Gretchen's, not the majority of the day he was in his room, otherwise I feel terrible for nothing.
We are also going to now be eating hard boiled eggs and egg salad for days! Next year we are only dying two dozen!
