Easter,
Well, here it is Easter Sunday. Of course the kids were up early, but I have to tell you I am quickly not liking this holiday very much. Don't get me wrong I love and respect the reason for the holiday, but I am not a fan of all of the candy and chocolate that seems to go along with it. I know you are all thinking that if you don't want your kids to have the sweets then just don't give them any, hey I am all for that, just tell that to the biggest kid in the house, my husband. :-) This morning Joshua wanted to eat his Fun Dip that came with the Easter Baskets that Mick bought for the kids without asking me. They of course were filled with candy, but back to the Fun Dip.; For those of you who don't know it's basically colored sugar that you eat with a candy stick. So, I told Joshua no, his response to me, very much something his dad would say, was I wish you were no here! I could not believe it. I know it's because daddy lets them do whatever they want. Yesterday was my day to sleep in, and when I came downstairs, our family room was filled with candy wrappers and the boys were bouncing off the walls. Mick had given them all of the cholcolate filled Easter eggs that they had gotten at school, and just let them eat whatever they wanted. It was crazy, they were so wired up on candy that we never really did get them down for naps. Anyway I am just venting.
HAVE A GREAT AND HAPPY EASTER!

I must agree - always too much candy. This year I bought very little candy to put in the kids' baskets and I was a much happier camper. We concentrated on the significance by watching an Easter movie and having a snack (yes candy) to go along with it, but it wasn't too crazy. Good luck, it always fun balancing those things.
