Easter Story

My son is five, and since Easter is coming, I wanted to make sure he understood the true meaning of why we celebrate the holiday. Still, you have to censor some of it. A five-year-old isn’t quite ready to handle the full meaning, but we talked about how Jesus died on the cross and rose again on Easter Sunday. You know, simple and sweet.

Son: But when does the Easter Bunny come?
Me: After church.
Son: (brightens) Oh! So the Easter Bunny helped Jesus rise from the dead!
