Easter Bunny

I have always been a major holiday person and one to enjoy all aspects of the holiday but as we approach the Easter holiday this year I have to say that I am getting pretty annoyed with the whole Easter Bunny thing. What in the world does the Easter bunny have to do with it anyway? And eggs and hiding them?????? Isn't their a way that we as Christians can find a fun way to celebrate the most important event in our history with our children then to hide eggs and pretend a great big bunny brought them a basket? I mean yes Good Friday is a sad day but Easter is the celebration of our Risen Lord!!!! Now that is something to celebrate and really focus on. I know some, including my husband and me a few years ago, will think I am being a fuddy duddy or a too uptight but really why am I putting any of my children's focus on a imaginary beast when something so amazing happened that we can focus on?
