I Love Easter!

I have two kids, as everyone who reads my blog knows by now, and having kids makes holidays so much more enjoyable. Easter is an especially fun holiday for me. Remembering back to last Easter, my son had finally understood that he must pick up the egg and put it in his basket. This year I'm hoping to see a little more of his competitive side. I believe that my son's personality is very similar to mine growing up. As a child I was very competitive, hyper, and just loved to have a good time. Is it bad that I want my son to find the most eggs and get the best goodies? I love to see him succeed and it would be so great if he could beat his older cousins to the eggs this time. I was telling my husband that we need to have a mock Easter egg hunt on the Saturday before Easter so we can train him to win. He kind of snickered and looked at me like I was crazy. He just doesn't understand the fun of beating others. My husband obviously doesn't have one competitive bone in his body. He lets me win with everything, which I do like. I think it's so sweet of him. Anyways, I got him to agree to the Saturday Easter practice! It's on baby! It's on! Just thought I would let every parent know to watch out because my three year old with obliterate the competition! Also, I do want to say that I love the reason why we celebrate Easter too. It's just that I finally enjoy the Easter egg hunts and chocolate bunnies part of Easter now that I have kids. I definitely find Easter one of the holiest holidays of the year besides Christmas. I just can't wait to see Joey having fun with the other children. I especially can't wait until Kaitlyn can get in on the action too!
