eggs

when my children were small, they LOVED easter eggs .... we'd have easter egg hunts at our house for weeks and weeks before and after easter .... when the twins were small they'd each pick a color ... like he'd hide the orange ones and she'd hide the yellow ones and they'd look for each others .... or during nap time i'd hide all the purple ones in the dining room .... or i'd hide every single solitary egg in the kitchen ... which really meant there were eggs on every possible surface, nook, and cranny .... we were egg hiders and hunters ...

now? we've had one egg hunt ... when little.e.beck.artist had a friend over ....

our eggs are merely decoration now ... instead of favored toys ..... when i was unpacking the easter stuff though, boy.beck.artist did say "dibs on the basket with the carrot on it" .... they grow up ... but not all the way at once ....
