Busted...

Well Easter was a bit different this year. Mom and Dad got busted by Meagan. She looked into a bag of Easter Candy, and wanted to know why they had bought all the Easter stuff!

Dad explained to the biped puppies what the true meaning of Easter was, and the spirit of Easter and spring was always alive and well. Though the tears of a little girl who curiosity caused her to grow up a bit got the best of her, she understood. That mom and dad were just acting at the direction of a larger Easter spirit.

Dad also explained that breaking the spirit in others, causes the spirit to die. Thus if they were to tell others this new information and ruin the Easter sprit in them, they would suffer the loss of the gifts they have become custom to. When asked if they understood what dad was telling them, Josh boiled it down nicely to “If we spoil it for someone, we don’t get candy anymore”

Mom and Dad knew it was time when Josh and Meagan had so much fun helping hide the eggs for the younger kids and taking part of a new kind of joy. They joy in watching the younger faces light up with Easter joy. Mom and Dads theory was validated when tucking them in to bed on Sunday night and hearing the words “This was the best Easter ever dad…”
