Today, Gigi and Tori went with the girls and I to see the Easter Bunny. I was going to dress them up but since it is St. Patty's Day I decided they should wear their St. Patty's Day shirts.
Gigi, Tori and I were very surprised what Reese said in the car on the way to the mall. She told us that the Easter bunny at the mall was not the real Easter bunny. She said she has a book about bunnies and it says that tall, giant bunnies do not exist. It's a person in a suit. The Easter bunny is a small bunny. Gigi then told her that the real Easter bunny can't be everywhere all the time so he has helper bunnies but that he is at the mall sometimes. Reese argued and said that the real Easter bunny is never at the mall. I asked her who told her this and she said "No one, it is just in my brain."
When we got to the mall, she was very excited to see the Easter bunny although she knew it was not the real one. When we got up close to him; she looked at me and said "See mom, he's not real. His mouth doesn't even move."
I still can't believe that Reese said this although it really shouldn't be that surprising or shocking with all of the stories that Reese tells and how she thinks she really does know everything. I'm glad that she still believes in the Easter bunny. My little Reesey piecey is growing up way too fast.
Tatum LOVED LOVED LOVED the bunny by the way. She got out of the stroller and went right up to him. She held his hand and said "Hi bunny, Hi bunny." She let the bunny pick her up and she was all smiles.
