Easter Bunny Munny

Its funny, how the most spiritually related holidays become the most commercialized holidays. Honey Bear mentioned that to me the other day, and in all honesty, I was thinking the same thing. You would not BELIEVE the sheer number of women who came in this week to withdraw big amounts of money, in small bills. For what? To stick in Easter eggs, so that they won't give their children candy. Now, don't get me wrong, I am all for the healthy approach, but giving your five year old fifty dollars...What exactly do you think they will want to buy? Candy! And more toys! And more candy! Okay, that's my rant for the day.
Remember Cute girl, who is three and said the whole, "You can have kids when you're as grown-up as me?" Well, today I saw her again. Haha, in fact, she plopped herself down in my window while her mom was talking to one of the other tellers, and proceeded to just chatter away to me. We talked about Minnie and Mickey Mouse, and the Easter Bunny, who she finally took a picture with by herself, how pretty she was in her Easter dress...you know, usual talkative three-year-old stuff.
Then, there it was again! "Do you have a daughter?" me: "Nope." her: "Oh! Then, a little boy?" Me: "Mmm...not really." Her: (a little skeptical) "Do you even HAVE kids?" me: (laughing) "Not yet, hon..."
Then, thankfully, her mother rescued me by telling her it was time to go. So, cute little girl gets up, and says, "See ya later, hon! Call me, okay?" And I giggled and told her I would see her later. But the cuteness did not end there. Oh, no. No, her mom stopped to chat with a friend, and so little Cutie-Pa-Tootie strolls back up to me and says, with a dramatic sigh, "My mom hasn't got it figured out at all. She's still talking to her friends." And then she smiles like her mother is just so silly, and she is so wise, and says "Meet my kids.." Gesturing to thin air, and I smile and say, "Hello!" and she tells me in an exasperated tone, "My husband stayed at home." And her mom whips around, laughing, and says "Husband, huh? When did THAT happen?!" And the little girls smiles and says, "Bye! Happy Easter!" and runs off. Seriously, best interaction of the whole day.
