I admit that I really enjoy having a group of adult friends who really are still kids at heart.  For Easter, my dear friend and writing partner, Jillian, wanted to do Easter Egg dying, hiding, and some game playing.  "Absolutely!" I said.  So, yesterday a group of 6 of us decorated 2 dozen eggs, hid them in the front and back yard, ran around like little children trying to find the most eggs, and laughed at ourselves until our bellies hurt.  We ate food and sweets and played a board game long past the time that any of us wanted to keep playing.  We were determined to finish the game, though by the end we were ready for anyone to win so that we could move from the game to the next activity.  I loved it!  For a day, we all reverted to childhood and played the games that children play.  The only thing missing was a visit from the Easter Bunny.  Then, again, who is childish enough to believe in such things???

Thank you to my many friends who help me to remain young at heart!  I hope we are still playing together well into our 90's.

As your sister says "It is NEVER too late to have a happy childhood". Glad you remembered to play and laugh.
