“Giftedness is not what you do or how hard you work. It is who you are. You think differently. You experience life intensely. You care about injustice. You seek meaning. You appreciate and strive for the exquisite. You are painfully sensitive. You are extremely complex. You cherish integrity. Your truth-telling has gotten you in trouble. Should 98% of the population find you odd, seek the company of those who love you just the way you are. You are not broken. You do not need to be fixed. You are utterly fascinating. Trust yourself!”

What's Your Secret Easter Bunny Name?


Not sure what has gotten into me this Easter!  I never make a big deal out of this holiday..yet as a child it was one of my favourites!  I vividly remember the year my parents gave me a stuffed animal for Easter, it was SO MUCH BETTER than getting chocolate!  I loved that little lamb!  (even after it got fruit punch all over its white, fuzzy fur!)

I must just ready for Spring to be here.  I can hear birds outside my window right now chirping away, and the weather was nice enough to go outside with just a spring jacket and running shoes on!  Now that is progress to all us Canadians!  We are done with ole man winter! 


I decorated my class for Easter this year, putting up a little Easter tree covered in little carrots and eggs.  I wore bright, sparkly pink bunny ears all day on Thursday, and I hand delivered a special Easter treat (homemade card and jelly beans) to all the members of our school staff.  I made Easter cards for my students and I attached an Easter pencil and sharpener to each card!  I bought Easter decorations to hang in my classroom, and I created the Easter graphic organizer/poster you saw on my blog on Friday!  

I guess you could say I'm cuckoo for Easter!  I know, I know, wrong bird... but still. Speaking of birds, I'm even roasting a turkey for Easter Sunday.  I bought all the fixins to do a full on Easter feast!  I got my daughter the cutest little Easter things you can imagine...including... a HUGE, stuffed Easter rabbit for her to snuggle with at night.  (Yes, she is thirteen, but like her mother, she still likes to cuddle.)  I got so carried away, that I made the graphic above, because it makes me smile.  I saw one like this for St.Patrick's day and the whole family got a laugh out of our leprechaun names.  I hope your Secret Easter Bunny name makes you smile this weekend!  

A Happy Easter to Everyone!
