Magical Easterness





Saturday Mission: Get Avery's Easter bunny pictures done.

While still in the mall parking lot, in our car, I see a severely handicapped woman violently twisting and jerking while she walks, smiling as if she is just thankful to be on her feet. I notice that she is amongst a sea of unhappy, perfectly healthy mall shoppers leaving with their unimportant purchases grumpily dragging their children to their SUVs.

This scene deeply moves me and I say to Troy with tears, "Life can be so unfair," to which he responds, "It makes you appreciate what you have," followed quickly by, "move it, fatty" to the, well, fatty walking slowly in front of our car. That made me laugh really hard because men burn out on sensitivity in like 0.225 seconds.

Anyway, we arrive to the line to see the pedofile in a rabbit suit Easter bunny. Daddy takes out the video camera to capture the magical Easterness, and we start getting excited! Picture time:


The funniest part of this photo is not my daughter flipping out in terror, or the creepy, possibly dead pedofile in a suit Easter bunny (who literally did not move once)...

But look at my face! It's like "Everything is fine! Everything is fine! I love this! I look happy... DON'T I LOOK HAPPY?!"

What a day... and it's only 3:30! I love being a mom.
