Sun Sun Mr. Golden Sun
Isn't it lovely to wake up to blue skies and sunshine!!! It makes me want to leap out of bed, and start the day! Looks like Mother Nature is going to give us a glorious weather weekend for our Easter holiday. I think my friends and I are going to spend it on the beach and boardwalk.
First I better get some things together for Easter baskets and I am so excited to be able to have an Easter Egg Hunt this year. My BFF Hope has her step-granddaughter here from England. I met her last night and I am smitten. Her name is Scarlett, she is 2 years old and looks and acts like she is from a storybook. A charming little thing with the cutest accent. "Hello, fancy a cuddle?" she asked me when meeting. I am looking forward to hiding eggs and coloring them with her. Which just a little side fact, they don't do in England. Leave it to us Americans to dye eggs bright colors.
My parents always had egg hunts for me, and I always found my Easter basket hiding in a tree, or behind a bush. Each year the "Bunny" would leave toys and goodies because I was the child who did not like chocolate. (Please why cant I still be like that!!!) A new Barbie doll, sand toys for the upcoming beach season and of course jacks and a jump rope. As I grew nail polish and jewelry took the toys places. Up until the year before my Mom passed away I found a basket waiting for me. I miss that tradition!!
Ann tells the story of the year her son Brad started college, he did not come home for Easter that year so she didn't make a basket for him or of course hide eggs. But he was upset even at the age of 19 not to have one and reminded her often how she forgot him on Easter. So...she vowed until the day I am to old to stuff an egg you will have a basket and an egg hunt!! Now the tradition carries on with her 3 grand kids.
Have a lovely holiday with your family, good luck finding the golden egg! To our Jewish friends may you and your family have a blessed Passover season.
