The bunny trail

Ah, the Easter egg hunt! This year in Ohio, we will once again be wearing winter coats for the event. A few days ago our temperatures were nearing 80 degrees, but today it is snowing. Such is life... We will be going to our local egg hunt for kids with special needs. This is a great event! It is held in a park where a regular egg hunt happens at the same time. The special needs kids do their egg hunt on a fenced-in tennis court. The hard surface means that kids with walkers, canes and wheelchairs can maneuver about without a problem. Once the eggs are all gathered (which takes about 3 minutes, LOL) each child receives an Easter basket with candy, trinkets and a small stuffed animal inside. It is really nice and my daughter gets excited about the whole event. May you have joy and laughter in your celebrations this weekend, regardless of the weather!
