The Hunt

I have never seen as much determination as I saw during our family Easter egg hunt. Cole and Kylie were so excited to find their eggs - and so serious too. They searched and searched the yard for anything they could get their hands on. Kylie was so sweet and shared all of her blue eggs with Cole since he is a boy! Even when we informed them that they had found all of the eggs they kept searching. And what a difference a year makes. Last Easter I had to help Cole find the eggs the entire time but this year he grabbed his bucket and took off like a shot. He did not want, or need, any help at all! That sweet boy was stomping in the flower beds, the woods, everywhere and anywhere he thought there would be an egg. The kids loved opening the eggs and finding what goodies were inside. Cole did become quite a fan of candy over the weekend...something we never have around. At Easter dinner he told everyone that all he wanted to eat was candy and asked for candy every time he thought he could get away with it. Today he told me he was hungry and since it was lunchtime I asked him what he wanted for lunch. He told me "jellybeans!" Oh my - I think we have a monster on our hands...ha ha!
