Easter Anticipation

Miss Monkey is very anxious about Easter. She knows that Easter is when we celebrate Jesus rising from the dead to save us from our sins. But to my seven-year daughter, her excitement is really about one thing. The Easter Bunny.

Tonight before bed, she insisted that she had to leave a treat for the Easter Bunny (because he's like Santa Claus, you know).

Here's the note she left on the counter (so the Easter Bunny would be sure to see it):

And here is the treat. One hard boiled, decorated Easter egg and a handful of carrots (because bunnies LOVE carrots).

Oh, to be a child again.
