Easter Egg Hunt

Each Tuesday, there is a play group in which James and I are involved and today's play group was and Easter Egg Hunt. The women who are sort of "in charge" of the group have set it up so that each week has a letter theme and todays was E (obviously fo
r Easter). We each had to bring twelve eggs so that we could have enough for all the kids (some parents have 2 or 3 kids so it worked out so that they only had 4-5 each). It was hilarious to watch the kids go around and gather the eggs because you can really tell the difference in ages. James is the youngest that can walk, so he was the most distracted and ineffective hunter of them all. I helped him find his first one (well they were all sort of just lying there on the ground, so they were really easy to spot) and he picked it up and shook it to hear the candy inside. He was so excited about the first one that he hardly had time to go around and get any more. But once he saw that the other ki

ds' baskets were getting more full than his, he decided that he would rectify the situation by trying to Easter Egg Hunt from their baskets. Luckily I caught him in time and just brought him over to where some unclaimed eggs were. I think he had alot of fun and I can't wait to do it on Sunday with Paul's help, so that he can be there to enjoy it as well. Plus, James can take his time because he won't be racing against other kids to try to get the eggs first.
