Not
so much isolation today! It was a sunny, fairly warm day (considering
this is Finland in early April) and it being Easter, we decided to
spend the
afternoon together
(just us three). We met outdoors, wore our masks and kept our
distances. We even organised an Easter egg hunt for our daughter! For
about a dozen years now, I’ve hidden the eggs around our house,
I’ve even once (a long time ago) hidden Easter eggs in an
elementary school classroom in Vancouver, Canada – but I’ve never
hidden them outdoors before! There’s usually still snow around
Easter, so it’s not customary to do the egg hunt outdoos, but now
we did. I also have this habit of forgetting where I’ve hidden them,
which means in the end we’re all looking for one or two missing
ones... 😄
(Interestingly enough, when I was little, it was the Easter Rooster that brought the eggs, but we seem to have adopted the Easter Bunny custom.)
We also went for a walk in the woods and around the neighbourhood, then
just sat on the patio, eating some Easter eggs. My DH kept asking if
we’d like one more, my DD and I kept pretending to think about it,
then said, ”Well, it is Easter.” ”And it is not Easter every
day, is it?” It is not! 😄 We talked a lot, laughed a lot – it’s wonderful how much
fun the three of us have together. 💓
