I really enjoyed a chat I had with my Granddaughter , Sweetie Pie. We talked about the Eggs she had received and how there were some eggs in the garden.
AND, she said , Grandma , I saw the Easter Bunny ! Strangely she referred to the bunny as a she. I've always thought of the Easter Bunny as being a He. Now, my grandchildren are bi-lingual , (my son in law is Italian), and I thought it might be because the Italian word for Easter Bunny is feminine. But no, it isn't.Sweetie Pies Easter bunny was Black and Brown.
Sweetie Pie was thrilled.
This reminded me of the time when we had a trailer tent, and for a first trip we went to Aunt Margaret's house for Easter. Aunt Margaret had a house surrounded by a large a field. So we went there.
At this time , Chrissie , my youngest , was just a baby and Eliza about the same age as Sweetie Pie is now. The Easter basket, full of little eggs, which at home appeared on the swing each year, on this occasion , was hidden in the hedgerow. Liza went to search for it. AND at the same time saw the Easter Bunny! Her Easter Bunny was male and light brown. She has never forgotten seeing the Easter Bunny, and to this day, swears she saw him !!
As for me, I was never lucky enough to see the Bunny, But I did always have an egg search. Below is a picture of me on one of these hunts. I think I must be about 7.
I do hope you all have had/are having , a lovely Easter break.
HUG ME I'VE GOT MND
