\"\"<\/a>We enjoyed a very nice Sunday this Easter Weekend. We hadn’t really hyped it up or even done much planning, but Mama had picked up a couple bags of plastic eggs (see notes from “First Easter<\/a>” ) earlier in the week, and we’d colored some stickers for a ‘Thankful’ project to hide in some of them. With Alexander’s passion for eggs, M&M’s and Hide and Seek, how could we deny him the sheer ecstasy of an outdoor hunt? So we brought out treasures over to Nana’s house after nap, and David made a little get-away for backyard hiding while Nana put the finishing touches on a very scrum-diddly-umptious supper. Mama had told Alexander earlier in the day that we were going to have a little hunt for some treasures at Nana’s house that evening, and so when we arrived and he spied something tucked in the bookshelf (Nana had hid some egg treasures too- Serena’s first Easter egg from 1979 and a few other favorites) he at first curled up his shoulders and a shy smile crept over his face. “Did you find something?” said Nana. He pointed and grinned. But when his turn came and the backdoor was opened, he knew just what to do. He bopped about the yard (with a little direction) and picked up the sparkly eggs filled with stickers, M&Ms, animal crackers, or cereal squares and piled them high in his basket. Later after supper, Nana had hid a few more with some change in his room, and he conquered those as well with a game of hot & cold. He wanted to do it all again but we told him he should hide them for Mama & Papa. He hid four while we closed our eyes. When it came time to look for them, he promptly scurried to retrieve them all and give them to Papa. “Hide the eggs again!” he said. It was a beautiful day with beautiful weather and good fun with family. Praise the Lord! We have so much to be thankful for this spring!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
