Easter's about bunnies


"Easter's about bunnies." declared my 5 year old granddaughter from the back of the car as we went to the store this morning.
...
I responded as any parent and pastor would, "Sweetie, Easter is about Jesus." And then, forgetting who I was talking to, I quickly explained the Easter story.
...
A few moments of silence....
...
Then, from the back, I hear this undaunted reply, "Ok, Easter's about Jesus AND bunnies."
...
I surrender. I know when I've been beaten by a 5 year old.
