Today was the day of our church Easter egg hunt, but we missed it because SOMEONE got out of bed too late and took too long (coughJEFFcough) Not that I'm bitter, but I was a little bummed. One of the girls gave Ian some eggs (which was SO sweet of her) and we hid eggs in the back yard. This picture is of Ian very pleased with himself that he found an egg. He even shared an egg with Hazel! I wasn't sure how he would do, but he had a great time AND found all the eggs. He isn't able to eat any of the candy inside the eggs, but that's ok. Jeff and I felt very commercialized when opening the eggs and getting the candy. We are still trying to decide what we are going to do to celebrate holidays (like Easter, Christmas, Halloween etc) and as we experience our first of each of these holidays with children, we have convictions about how we should celebrate and what traditions we want to do. We thought the egg hunting was fun, but thought the candy reward in the egg was a little too much. It is so much fun to celebrate holidays with your own little family and I pray that Jeff and I celebrate all holidays in ways that help our children understand the true meaning of them.
