(By the way, I am like a bipolar blogger. I am either posting every 20 minutes or not posting for a month. Go figure.)Tonight we were reading a story about the Easter bunny. It is a cute book with colorful illustrations of everyone's favorite rodent hiding eggs and scattering jelly beans here and there. It even points out how funny it is that he hops around on two legs. After reading that particular line, Jake interjected ...
"I don't really believe in the Easter Bunny."
Let's confer for a moment. Is not the E.B. a little, shall we say, overboard? I mean, a six foot rabbit hopping to and fro hiding eggs ... which, by the way, why eggs?! Bunnies don't lay eggs! The E.B. ruins it, people! First they question the E.B., and before you know it the T.F. is gone and finally S.C. Really. Have you been to the mall? He doesn't even blink.
So I kind of started to panic because Grace was sitting with us, and I want to keep the magic (ridiculous as it may be) alive for her. But then Jake came through. I had to bite my lip to keep from laughing when he said ...
"I mean, how does a bunny get that big? It would take years. I think it is just a guy dressed in a big bunny suit."
I am still cracking up. He thinks the Easter Bunny is a strange man dressed in a suit, who, for whatever reason, feels compelled to visit the home of children and hide eggs.
That should buy us another year.
