Dear Easter Bunny

Gabe left this wonderful note for the Easter Bunny this year.  He is such a sweet boy. I can tell he badly wants to believe but at the same time he questions everything and wants to analyze it and figure it all out. He is a very literal kind of guy . Not like me at all. I don't remember ever even thinking about the particulars of things - I just accepted and enjoyed! But he wants to understand it all.  My favorite was how he would ask us very serious questions in a nonchalant way: how big is the Easter Bunny? what color was he? did he walk on just two legs?  I told him I had never seen the Easter Bunny so I didn't know what he looked like or how he walked/hopped. Eric told him he thought he was a giant purple bunny. Gabe just smiled and shook his head and said, no Dad I think he is white. When it was time for bed he made sure the baskets were filled with paper grass and laid out on the table, and bowl of carrots waited next to his sweet little note. When he was setting out the plastic eggs (which after he asked about I told him the E. B. fills the eggs we leave out) he asked me how the Easter Bunny was going to open the eggs to fill them with candy when he only has little paws. He thoughtfully left all the plastic eggs open to make his job easier.  Gabe is such a sweet little guy!!
