Sigh....
I asked my Vanessa (who's turning 22 tomorrow - March 21) if she wanted to have our annual Egg Hunt and Basket Hunt on Easter Sunday this year.
I was shocked when she hemmed and hawed and ultimately said it might be ok not to do a search this year.
This coming from a girl who stood in line for two hours at Disneyland so she could hug Winnie the Pooh and Tigger!
Perhaps it's wise not to mention we were all in Disneyland approximately 7 years ago!
I'm realizing as time proceeds, the traditions we all take for granted evolve and remain only in memories. It's so very difficult watching children grow older...
Ultimately, the comfort I can glean from this is when my children have children of their own, part of our traditions will be carried on.
I must admit, though, as Vanessa and James got older, it was a lot harder for the Easter Bunny to hide those eggs and to come up with tougher and better clues as to where the famous baskets were!
I guess I'll have to content myself with delivering one more candy and trinket Easter Basket to each of them as well as their Jeff and Margaret.
Here's hoping they'll still share!
