The girls had been anxiously awaiting this day and planning what they would do to their eggs. Jillian had been reading an Easter story about decorating eggs, and had found some very intricate designs that she wanted to copy. This photo shows her intensely focused on trying to draw a design on an egg. She did this for a little while, but it didn't turn out the way she hoped. Jilllian finished coloring the rest of her eggs, but then had a meltdown afterwards because the decorating did not go as she planned. She recovered (sort of) about an hour later.
Bridget enjoyed using markers on her eggs, putting all kinds of designs on them. She really liked it when we got out the paints, though her hands ended up with more paint on them than the eggs. She did pretty good this year, only breaking a few eggs.
Tor had his nap while the girls worked. He woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and could barely do any egg coloring with all his crabbiness. He smashed a couple eggs, and then cried when we said we were all done. Oh well, maybe next year.
