Shhh! The Easter Bunny is Coming . . .

I've mentioned this before, but at our house, the Easter Bunny comes on Saturday morning.  It's just how we have it worked out with him.  So tonight, at bedtime, we were telling the girls the good news, that they'd be waking up to Easter eggs and presents in the morning.  Greg then explained, "The Easter Bunny is really skittish though -- he needs it to be quiet to come."  I added, "You know how if you're around a squirrel, and you move around or make lots of noise, it'll run away . . . well, you guys need to be very quiet and go to sleep . . . "  We were pretty sure we'd officially put the fear of the Bunny into them, and they might put up less of a fight tonight and go to sleep without talking, singing, fighting, whining, crying and laughing for hours on end.
"So you guys need to go to sleep . . . " Greg reminds them as we finish up our bedtime routing.
"OK," Ellie agrees.

Annie suddenly turns to her sister and says, in all seriousness, "Ellie. Do not snore."


Ha!

Hee, hee. I'm glad that her snoring didn't keep the bunny away :)
