Happy Easter



We have been priming Zara all week that the Easter bunny may come visit our garden if she is a good girl... Last night, having been reminded that Sunday was today, she went to bed with no hassles and at about 8.40am this morning Chris had to wake her... We had told her that she had to have breakfast first and then we could phone the Easter bunny and see if he had been in our garden. The only problem is that there have been Easter eggs in the larder cupboard so she thought that that was where she had to look...

After breakfast and much negotiation to get dressed we headed out the kitchen door in search of Easter eggs... Considering her usual sharp eyesight she needed quite a lot of help in spotting the prominently displayed eggs... Having found one (huge) chocolate bunny, she was happy to abort the hunt and devour the entire chocolate. I think even Chris would have been defeated by the size of the chocolate but Zara just kept at it till it was all in her tummy... and then wanted more!

After the hunt we went to Delta Park, came home and had some lunch, all had a sleep and now Chris and Zara have gone for a ride on the bike past Samuel's house.

This is probably the first Easter we have spent in Jozi (in 12 years) and I must say, its been a lovely - quiet - family day and I have thoroughly enjoyed being at home for a change...
