Don't worry, I'm not going to go religious on you; I just thought I'd share something that happened to me last Sunday. My mother-in-law teaches Sunday School at our church. My daughter happens to be in her class. K-1st grade. She was asking the kids about Easter. They all made comments like, "Easter bunny, egg hunting, Easter baskets", and such. She was a little surprised at this. My reply was: "Which is easier to believe; a man rising from the dead, or a magical bunny delivering eggs." As a parent this is much easier to explain because we have a magical man delivering presents at Christmas and a magical man with a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for St. Patrick's Day and so on and so forth. Now, my children are actually aware of the true meaning of Easter and Christmas and we incorporate it into the holidays, but it doesn't mean they can't have a little fun with the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus. Here's wishing everyone a Happy Easter! No matter what they do!! :)
