The night before Easter…the boys are in bed, the baskets are prepared and waiting to be pounced upon the next morning.
Easter morning…the baskets are gleefully opened before going to church. The coloring book goes into a bag to go to church, the rest to be appreciated once everyone got back home.
Easter afternoon…time to relax and unwind watching one of the movies from the Easter Bunny. Should it be Muppets or Puss in Boots? The vote was for Puss in Boots. After we opened the DVD and popped it into the player, we learned an important lesson about the Easter Bunny.
Sometimes, the Easter Bunny gets it wrong.
You see, there are a few movies out there about the dashing cat. But if you’re not careful, instead of getting that one inspired by the Shrek character, you’ll get The True Story of Puss and Boots. Instead of listening to the dulcet tones of Antonio Banderas and Selma Hayek, we got…William Shatner. So we parents hid our disappointment of listening to The Shat by excitedly complimenting the Easter Bunny for finding a new movie for us.
But there were a few eye rolls behind the kids’ backs.
