Too Frozen to Hunt Eggs


Today, we went to a "Jesus Treasure Hunt" at the church we have been visiting. It seems like every year in the few weeks leading up to Easter the weather is warm and beautiful. As soon as Easter weekend approches BANG it's freezing! So I dug out all the kids winter gear that I had already packed up in the attic and we put on our game faces and took the cold head on. Noah was first up to hunt and he looked frozen stiff before it even began (see how "eggcited" he was!). They opened the gates and let all the "two and under's" loose. Noah took his basket and walked through the sea of eggs and just stood there.
We tried to encourage him to pick one up but all he would do is bend down like and old man and point to the egg. After mommy and daddy threw a few in his basket (we didn't endure this cold for nothing) he finally decided to pick up some. When he figured out that the other kids were getting "his" eggs, then he was interested.
