Easter Sunday

The Easter Bunny leaves rhyming clues inside plastic eggs for the boys to find little presents hidden around the house. Ian was reading one of them out loud, Colin sitting right by his side, listening intently. Part way through, Colin leans over to Steph and whispers, "Hey, Mom! Ian's a really good reader!" The clue was about where we put bookbags and coats. Ian, to help his brother out, prompts: "And where do we keep bookbags and coats?" Colin thinks for a second and says, "The DINING ROOM!" As they go by me on their way to the dining room, Colin gives me a "hey Buddy" pat on the arm.




After Colin found one of his gifts and a couple of chocolate eggs along the way, he ran back to show Mommy. I said, "And two chocolate eggs to boot!" So when he gets to the living room he says to her, " Look, Mom. And two chocolate eggs to boot!"

Too funny. they were cracking us up all morning.

While they were hunting for chocolate eggs, Ian was thinking about Colin and the fact that Colin is younger. Every once in a while Ian would hand him a chocolate egg and say, "Here, Colin. You can have this one." "Thanks, Ian!" Can you beat that? Love it.

Later, everyone came over to our house to have Ian's family birthday celebration. He was grateful for all the presents he got and spent some good time sharing his things and visiting. It was great to see everyone.












Hey Colin, You're busted for unauthorized enjoyment of chocolate!


Happy Easter!
