Easter Bunny

The children have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Easter Bunny. We get daily questions about when he will arrive. How big is he? Where does he live? Does he sleep at night? (Huh?)

Mommy told the kidlets that he'd come on Saturday because Sunday is a busy church day. They thought that was fine. Daddy's plane was delayed in Barrow Friday night, so he didn't arrive home until Saturday at 1:30 in the afternoon. The Easter Bunny hopped in for a visit shortly thereafter while daddy was upstairs entertaining the trio. E.B. left 74 eggs, 73 of which the children found. B found 27, V found 22, and J found 23. V and J got lots of help. B only received a little help at the end. (Later in the day he located the final missing egg. He's a clever and persistent child.)

Speaking of bunnies, Opa spotted a real bunny in our back yard this morning. He did not have a basket, so the children figured it wasn't the E.B.

Latest Rumor: I heard via the grapevine that the E.B. is making a short return visit tomorrow to leave baskets.
