Day to Day happenings in my life

Easter tradition

Have fun with these words: celebrate, options, baskets, eggs, chocolate, jellybeans, laughter and children.

Yes, it’s getting closer to Easter. A time to celebrate. Churches around the world will be celebrating Jesus’ resurrection.
For non-christians this is also a time for celebration. It’s a time of renewal. Spring flowers bloom, birds nest and their babies grow, fly and life begins anew.

But for children, Easter is a time for searching for chocolate eggs to place in their baskets. Laughter and giggles will be heard on Easter Sunday morning when the Easter Bunny has hopped in to leave candy, jelly beans and lots of chocolate, before hopping off to see other boys and girls.

Since I’ve been a grandma, my eldest is 37, and now I’m a great grandma, I’ve always thought the children received enough chocolate from other relatives. So my options were to give them even more, or buy them something else. As we live in Australia Easter is in Autumn, the nights are becoming cool, so warm Pyjamas are what I give for Easter. It’s become a tradition, one which my daughter, also a Grandmother is carrying on.
