Easter Egg Hunt

This past weekend was our favorite local annual Easter egg hunt. We almost missed it. I had been watching for it in the paper, but never did see it. Sister Joni called and told me that it was that morning. The girls have fun and they are always excited to have the treats when it's all over. Even though it's fun for her, Meikiina is so scared to do things like this. Crowds of people are always so hard on her and hard for her. It breaks my heart when I watch her. She so wants to do something like this, but still it's so hard for her to do. You can see the tug-of-war in her. She might start acting out and I know that she is wanting to go, but is thinking about how scary it's going to be for her.

They do have the kids broken into age groups, but there are still lots of kids in each group. But there are soooo many eggs all the kids get lots of treats. It doesn't matter what the weather is there are lots of kids. We've seen warm sun, rain, and snow, and the crowd was always just as big. This year was not too bad. It wasn't really warm, but we did not freeze.
