First of all can I just say - I officially hate snow... Its almost the end of March.. Moving on..
Went to Target today with my mom and the boys to shop and hopefully do some stealthy easter basket shopping. Well, that did not turn out so well. I thought I had everything on the down low, but it turns out that my kids pay more attention to me than I thought.
My mom took them to different departments while I went in search of perfect easter basket goodies, that I am sure the easter bunny would have picked out if he had went to Target himself. The kids didn't seem to notice the things I put in the cart. Not alot, but just enough.. Some candy, but then some Pokemon cards and a book to read.
While checking out I made the boys stand by a pole a little ways away from the checkout... Because boys are boys they started immediately messing around and so I had to go over to them to "clarify" some things about their behavior.. Mason says to me "Does that mean you're not getting that stuff in your cart for our Easter baskets". Justin adds "Yeah, Mom I thought that the easter bunny brought us all that stuff anyway"... "So there's no Easter bunny. You're the Easter bunny".. YES I AM!!!.
They seem okay with this. I probably won't find out until later in their lives what trauma I have caused. I'm sure a counselor will be needed in the future.
Sure hope Santa Claus doesn't keel over this year...

I can't believe that they figured it out that easily. I hope they continue to believe in santa and the tooth fairy.
smart little guys!
Don't feel bad.....I flipped out and starting screamong "I'm the Easter Bunny, God Damn it!" when my kids started pissing and moaning that the easter bunny was overly generous to the other kids with toys and such and why was the easter bunny such a cheap ass with them, blah,blah,blah. After the meltdown they said..."Well that probably screws the whole Santa Clause and Tooth Fairy Huh?" I said "hell yeah" thats what they get for being such greedy little monsters, an Easter Bunny bringing a bike, when the hell did that start happening? Antway, they were pissed off cause I had kept this magic going on for a long time....the only person who ended up needing therapy was me, for feeling like a guilty asshole.
