Is There An Easter Bunny??


Praise the LORD for half days and long weekends!! Stanton ISD will be released from school at 12:30 today and will not resume until Monday morning in observance of Easter. I am never "Ivy free", so last night I took full advantage of it and went shopping for "Easter bunny" stuff. I bought her the Taylor Swift CD she has been wanting along with egg-shaped sidewalk chalk, edible jewelry, a cute little light-up pen and other cute things like that. In a rush, I put the receipt in my purse and not in my wallet. BIG mistake!! Ivy went snooping through my purse, a habit that she has just started. I was busy cooking supper and getting some things done around the house so I was unaware. Anthony realised what she was doing, and quickly ripped the receipt out of her hands. Sadly it was not before she read the contents. She screamed out "Yes, Mommy finally bought me the Taylor Swift CD"! Needless to say, I was not a happy camper. I was already in a horrible mood, and that just sent me over the edge. I have told her time and time again to stay out of my purse. She has no business getting into my purse, no matter how innocent it was or not. I sent her to her room so I could cool off. She knew she was in big trouble, so she wrote me a cute, sweet note. It read a little something like this:

Dear Mommy,
I am so sorry for snooping through your purse after you told me not
to. I know I have been really loud, bad and abnoxcous(her spelling of
course) and for that I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Check yes or no
if you are still mad at me.
I love you,
Ivy

P.S. I'm sooooooo sorry. xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

How could I still be upset after reading that? I almost cried. I gave her a big hug and kissed her on her head. She looked up and simply asked "Is there an Easter bunny"? Of course I said yes. I don't want to take all of the fun away, at least for a few more years. Now, I don't know what to do! The Easter bunny can't give her the CD because she knows I bought it. Oh, what to do, what to do??
