For some reason Adam has been talking to one of his friends at school about the Easter Bunny. This friend Assured Adam that the Easter Bunny is not real. Adam started to talk to Richard about the issue, and they asked us both if the Easter Bunny really existed. I told them to ask Dan, and Dan told them to ask me. We finally decided that we could let this little game go. When we were putting them down to bed they asked us one last time, "Is the Easter Bunny really real?" We responded, "No, the Easter Bunny is not real." Adam and Richard looked at each other, and then back at us, and Adam said, "But what about the lettuce and the carrots, and the Lego sets we got, and the candy?" "That was all you guys!?" Adam had put out carrots and lettuce the past few years for the Easter Bunny to eat. We had been bitting off pieces of the carrots or just hiding the stuff he put out and telling him that the Easter Bunny had been eating it. It took him a minute to totally accept what we were telling him. He asked again, "That was really you guys the whole time?" He didn't have too hard of a time, but he began to ask about Santa and the Tooth Fairy, we decided that one disappointment was enough for one night and we assured he and Richard that the rest of those characters were real . . .
