We have gone to Wildwood Park's Easter celebration since Gavin was little. Its a sweet little park and they put on a nice little day. Gavin did the 3 legged race with Evangelina, they sat on the bunny's lap, and of course did the egg hunt. Austin wanted NOTHING to do with the Easter Bunny. At least he was able to get within 30 yards of him, but that was ALL. After that he was far away and kept his eyes peeled to make sure that bunny was not near!
Austin went in the first round of the egg hunt as it was got 4 and younger. He was so quick, grabbed all he could get and then was done. As he was walking back to me, a little girl was crying because she started late and didn't get any. He bent down and dumped about 5 handfuls from his basket into hers. She was so happy and he was proud. He will never know that I was the most proud! What a sweet boy. Everyone else was too busy collecting and looking at what they found to notice a little girl crying. He did not walk by. He did not look the other way. He stopped and gave her some. True meaning of the season.
Gavin and Evangelina went next, and oh my goodness, they had a crowd! They had their baskets full in seconds and were totally done! So much for the days when he would collect a few eggs and be done!!!
