Easter was always fun for me as a kid. I loved trying to find the eggs, that in hindsight, weren't very difficult to find. When I became a dad I had a renewed interest in the Easter traditions of coloring eggs and buying pastel colored toys. For some reason toys became part of Easter, or maybe I just spoiled my son. Spoil your family this Easter. They deserve it.
