Grace proved to be quite the pro at Easter egg hunting. I had thought that I was going to have to show her what to do, but much to every one's astonishment, as soon as she walked into the yard with her basket and saw the eggs scattered about she immediately started running around the yard and gathering the eggs. It was as if it was instinctive! She seemed a little disappointed when they were all collected. I actually regretted that I didn't really hide them. For a girl like Grace, that would have really made the whole event worth it. And what a wonderful surprise it was to her to find little treats hidden within each colorful egg! She sat very quietly at the kitchen table afterwards and carefully went through each egg to inspect the insides. She would savor every candy in the egg before moving on to the next one. Her favorite treat... Jr. Mints!
