It’s a beautiful day in Southern California and I just realized that the kid’s baskets, the ones that I have had for each of them since birth, are missing! Every year we put them out for the Easter Bunny to fill and I cannot find them anywhere! This is only our second year in this house but I remember putting them up in a closet for safekeeping and they are not there now.
I could hit one of the stores to get two different baskets but it’s not the same. I’ve torn the house apart. I have no idea what happened to them. To be honest with you, I don’t think the kids would care too much as long as they had other baskets but it’s sort of sad for them to be gone. I am going to have my husband check the attic just in case they got shoved up there when we put the Christmas stuff away.
Anyway, have a Happy Easter!
Hmmm, I’ve heard of Easter eggs and Easter bunnies, but an Easter pickle is new to me!!>>Seriously, I hope the baskets turn up in the attic. I know how frustrating it is when things “disappear” like that!
I know exactly how you feel, but you’re right, it probably means more to you than it does to your kids.
I feel your pain Ti. When our kids were young we also used the same baskets every year. I hope you find them!
It is a bit sad, but other, unexpected things will make it through all the years. Two of my favorite treasures are the odd spoon I had to use as a kid (which I hated until I was all grown up) and some buttons from a favorite pair of pj’s my mom made me. Your kids will have treasures too! Happy Easter!
Awww, hope you find them! My sister-in-law had a miscommunication with my mother-in-law and thought the MIL was sending Easter baskets like she usually does…but apparently, she wasn’t, so our Easter bunny did some last-minute emergency shopping as well. Hope it turns out OK.
I hope you were able to find the kids’ baskets. I know what frustrating it is when you know you put something somewhere and it isn’t there! Ugh! I wanted to let you know I’ve given you an award, so stop by and pick it up when you get a chance! You can find it < HREF="http://southerngal-lisa.blogspot.com/2009/04/sunday-salon-happy-easter.html" REL="nofollow">here<>.>Happy Easter!
Sorry to hear that the Easter baskets seem to have gone AWOL. Hope they turn(ed?) up!>>Hope you have a Happy Easter, either way!
I hope your found them! That would upset me too.>>The bunny only brought one chocolate bunny for my boys to share. The Pirate insists there should be more.
