The Hunt


Madeline went on her first easter egg hunt a few days ago. I didn't think she would understand what to do, but she picked up on it right away and ended up with a basket half full of eggs. She didn't figure out until we got home that there was actually something IN the eggs and that the something was CANDY.



She refused to let go of her basket, even when "the hunt" was over. She carried it around, went in the swing with it, and took it with her down the slide. I don't think I ever would have been able to pry it from her hands if she knew at that point about the candy inside.

It's so fun that she's getting old enough to semi-enjoy the holidays.
