The Easter Bunny Is Very, Very Late
Since Dawson was a baby I’ve The Easter Bunny has always prepared an Easter basket for him, filled with little chocolate eggs, a hollow chocolate bunny, jelly beans and a small toy or two.
In past years, he’s been too young to understand what’s going on, and this year he finally understands that The Bunny hides a basket of candy somewhere in this house and he is supposed to find it.
However, this year I failed The Bunny sort of forgot. In fact she was so busy it didn’t even cross her mind until THIS MORNING that she forgot to fill a basket.
Dawson is oblivious to the fact that The Easter Bunny makes mistakes and he is so distraught that I told him The Bunny is just running late, and that to make up for her erroneous ways, she is sending him something super cool, scheduled to arrive on Wednesday, when the Easter UPS Man gets his bunny-butt hoppin’ (the Easter Bunny ordered the super cool thing on Monday as a surprise, but didn’t think to use express shipping to get the item here by Friday. What a dumb bunny!).
In the meantime, we’re coloring Easter eggs because that damn bunny forgot all about that, too. She’s definitely not getting the Bunny of the Year award now!
Happy Easter, everyone!

LOL. Sure sucks to be human… err… I mean… sure sucks to be a bunny.
Moms make mistakes sometimes. Especially busy moms.

Sometimes Moms, er, bunnies get busy! It’ll be alright. He probably won’t even remember the bunny was late next year, but I bet you won’t forget!

Don’t feel too badly. After going to a killer Easter egg hunt at a friend’s house on Saturday, I canceled ours all together.
