Do They Believe

If you have watched my "Easter Basket 2016" VLOG then you heard me say.....(if you have a child who still believes in the Easter Bunny that can read, either come back later or just move a way you don't have wandering eyes over your shoulder!).....waiting.....

Ah ok by now you have gotten situated. But you heard me say my daughter no longer believes.  I knew this day was coming, I knew she would be at the age where she questions things, and she picks up on things. This momma doesn't raise any dummy's.  She finally confessed that she knew the tooth fairy and the Easter bunny...as well as the elves were fake. That it was mommy and daddy. 

You may have noticed there is one big oh jolly dude I didn't mentioned that's because she still believes in Santa clause.  I will not take that from her. Like I have explained to her if in your heart you still believe he is real then he is real. 

The Easter Bunny, Toothfairy, The elves, and Santa Claus was all I had left of my little girl still being little and not a growing up, preteen full of attitude big girl. 

Now I am sure your asking yourself what about Brayden does he believe. YES, he does still believe and we have made an agreement with Ryleigh that if she ruined it for her brother that mommy will ruin it for her. (I know such a mean mommy) 

But leave me some comments below about your children do they still believe or has the topic come up yet? How did you handle it?

Easter Traditions

It's hard to believe we are almost to Easter time this year. Do you have traditions with your family that you do every year? Traditions you'd like to start doing?

Our family is probably like a lot of families. We usually go to church with my mom on Easter Sunday, that is after waking up and seeing what the Easter bunny left them.  Don't worry, I have always taught my children the true meaning of Easter. But it's also fun to see them believe in the Easter Bunny. I mean my oldest finally told me about three weeks ago that she knows the Easter Bunny, The Elves, and Toothfairy aren't real. But she believes in Santa. I am glad she does. Because my oldest is 10 years old and well that's something as a child she is holding onto. I have come to terms with the fact that my kids will not always be little. But until they come to me and tell me they no longer believe such as my daughter then they will still get to participate in the easter bunny! Don't worry though her brother doesn't know the truth yet therefor, we agreed with her as long as she keeps her big mouth shut lol then we would let her get something from the "Easter Bunny" as well. We also participate in a lot of Easter Egg hunts. Well let me rephrase that not a lot because we've only been to a few and a few of them we have hosted! :)

Are you ready to start traditions with your children? Or have you already!

Leave in the comments below what you do with your family!
