As a child, today was a day when you could eat all the chocolate and jelly beans you wanted – before breakfast (and even at church if you didn’t drop any and give away the secret!) We thought they were not paying attention and just lucky…but, really they were letting us enjoy the holiday.

Then, even after the baskets of treats – there was more.

They called the kids and let them run.

• Collect eggs.
• Find the ones hidden away.
• One more, over there!
• Laughs, giggles and whoops of joy.

Today was the ideal day to bring the family together to celebrate. Take pictures in new dresses, wearing pristine white shoes and celebrate a very happy Easter. Of course, you can also enjoy all the chocolate you can…just ask the kids, I am sure they will share.
