Hippity, Hoppity

Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Easter's on its way


Bringin' ev'ry girl and boy
A basketful of Easter joy
Things to make your Easter
Bright and gay


He's got jelly beans for Tommy
Colored eggs for sister Sue
There's an orchid for your mommy
And an Easter bonnet too. Oh!


Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail
Hippity hoppity
Happy Easter Day


Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail
Look at him hop and listen to him say,


"Try to do the things you should"
Maybe if you're extra good
He'll roll lots of Easter eggs your way


You'll wake up on Easter morning
And you'll know that he was there
When you find those choc'late bunnies
That he's hiding ev'rywhere,
Oh!


Here' comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail
Hippity hoppity
Happy Easter Day.

As can be expected, Easter morning is filled with laughter, hunting for eggs, much chocolate, and a couple experiments with "just add water and watch 'em grow" items. So, with thoughts of Peter Cottontail, marshmallow Peeps (we don't like them here), chocolate bunnies, and colored eggs dancing in our heads, we prepare for a day of travel, food, laughter and fellowship.

May everyone rejoice in the renewal of Spring, celebrate what's important, and embrace those you love, near and far.
