I think it goes without saying that Easter 2021 was a special one for so many! Last year we did Easter basket exchanges between a window of glass & this year we were all together again. The sound of the kids laughter was that much more beautiful.
This was the year that Magnolia asked the sweetest questions from the backseat of the car. One sunny afternoon she asked, "mom, what does the Easter bunny look like?" I said I wasn't sure & asked what she thought he looked like. She told me she wasn't sure, but she'd dream about him and get back to me. A few days later she dreamed of the Easter Bunny! We found out that "SHE wears a pink & blue tutu, a princess crown, and she's tiny. She also goes apple picking in Grandma's woods!"
For weeks Magnolia plotted & planned a scheme to catch the Easter bunny. She was determined & I think she believed we would have a pet bunny after Easter Sunday. That we do not! We do have several new fluffy *stuffed* bunnies that she's been playing with for days.
Every year she gets a swimsuit or two in her basket. This year she got her first bikini in the sweetest Magnolia print. When she pulled out the top she squealed, "OMG it's a BOOBY swimsuit!!!" Of course I burst out laughing, all the while Ryan sat quietly and unresponsive. Across the kitchen table she flung that top around, repeating herself at least three more times, until Ryan finally couldn't hold in the laughter any longer!
The sun was shining bright & it was the perfect afternoon for a grill out with the family after the kid's went egg hunting.
