I mentioned in a previous post that Easter morning we got up and headed to church. Some of you may have wondered about how the Easter Bunny plays (or doesn't play) into that scenario. At our house, the Easter Bunny arrives while you're at church on Easter morning. This way, Daddy A doesn't miss anything, and I don't have to rush everyone out the door to a chorus of disappointment over not being able to play with new toys. The boys accepted from the start (probably because we've always done things this way) that the Easter Bunny has lots of houses to go to and so we offered to be a "late shift", so to speak, and get our gifts after church.
This year, the boys got much bigger Easter gifts than usual. (I realize new bikes are a bit much for the Easter Bunny to bring, but it dawned on me after P's birthday - of course - that he doesn't know how to ride a bike. He couldn't pedal a two wheeler - or a tricycle - with much expertise. Daddy A has a sabbatical this summer, so we knew that would be a good time for P to learn. Daddy A suggested the boys get their bikes from the Easter Bunny, rather than just out of the blue.)
Sunday evening we took the boys and their bikes to the neighbors' driveway across the street for their first "lesson". More to come...
