There was the candy, the chocolate, and the mayhem. They pretty much went in that order, as well as increasing in magnitude with every step. The girls pigged out on the baskets of candy (which were considered to be sparsely loaded) early this morning after a rousing game of Egg Hunting. A few hours later we went to a nice brunch that we had to make reservations for 2 weeks ago. I figured they would be passable and maybe even hungry by that time. No such luck. This restaurant was SMART. They had a kids buffet filled with rice krispie treats, colorful goldfish crackers, sugary cereal like Lucky Charms, doughnuts, tater tots, cookies, yadda yadda ad naseum. My kids wouldn't even touch that. There were random trifles of chocolate eggs and the whatnot scattered around the tables, and that was what they ATE. It was incredible. The chocolate drool alone from Mary's mouth was notable. And they did not want to sit down. Emma very nearly pulled the table cloth and all table belongings off onto the floor at least twice. Mary fell out of her booster seat more times than I could count. All I can say is that we will not be going to another brunch any time soon - and maybe not even next Easter.
As an aside, Emma is still unable to stop the mayhem and is kicking her bedroom door right now. I should go see what it is that is so dire.
