Easter 2010

Is there a word for ecstatic + delighted? That would be the one to describe her with her mouth full of candy

Unfortunately, the weather wasn't as nice as last year so we allowed the Easter Bunny permission to hide the eggs in the house on the main floor ; ) (Later in the day, I was accosted to answer specifics about the Easter Bunny and all of his goings on. She had me sweating bullets trying to come up with answers). After a small coloring project in the basement, we had Sofia, Autumn, and Marcelo hunting on the main floor. Sofia was running around collecting eggs so fast, she's a blur in most of the pictures. When her basket was overflowing with bounty, she helped the younger ones collect eggs too.

She was sooo happy to find this gift basket hidden in her room behind her door. It took her all of 1.2 seconds to sprint upstairs and find it

Sometimes Sofia is a little too helpful --she found Autumn's and Marcelo's gift baskets too

Since we have cut back down on the TV watching, Sofia has really been into coloring, drawing, and writing lately so her Easter gift basket was all about new washable markers, self-sharpening coloring pencils, drawing pads, etc. I would have been in seventh heaven had I had all these things when I was five. Did I tell you I used to play with a button on string ...
