Easter Festivities

Easter festivities are upon us.  For a family who has no religious affiliation, this has to be one of my favorite holidays since having children.  Easter baskets, egg hunt, jelly beans, decorating eggs, wearing spring colors . . . what’s not to love?

On Saturday we took the kids to an Easter Egg hunt in a nearby small town.  It was supposed to start at 11:15 am, and after lining up with his bucket, Dec seemed to instinctively know what to do.  He was chomping at the bit to get started, even breaking the tissue paper barrier at the starting line.  Everyone watched as I repeatedly snatched Dec back just as he darted forward, his chubby little hand reaching for a plastic egg . . .
