A fantastic Easter Sunday!

Easter for me is mostly about the children, and family time.
Once a heavily religious message is now marketed as a lighter one for the purpose of consumption and earning a living. The story of a man sacrificing his life for us, is now one which includes the Easter bunny and the delivery of not ordinary eggs no, no, no - chocolate ones! How did this happen? who married the two stories together??
But like anything time changes everything, and this world we live in evolves at a rate of knots. I do believe that its always good to educate the kids the real meaning or at least the original story and then lets have the fun with the Easter bunny, as keeping things light is good for the spirit ultimately.

I have lived in Cobham now for 3.5 years, and like most people finding your feet takes a while. It means meeting people and finding where you are comfortable. I think I have now found it here. I have met some truly amazing people in this town who I adore (you all know who you are), and it makes me enjoy where I live, for me and my family.
Today proved to me that I have the most amazing neighbours and friends and family (from up the road, on the same road, Weybridge, Oxshott and Barnes - yes a mixed bag of egg hunters descending on Cobham) people who now work with me on various charity projects giving up their time, who work out with me and or are simply amazing to be around for dinner and a chat, coffee or a play date. A comfort that is so precious especially as you get older (I'm not that old yet - 2 more years to go to the big 4-0).
Thanks for the amazing Easter Egg Hunt today neighbours/friends - I loved it and so did my family - I truly feel the community spirit here is brilliant!!! Here is to an annual Easter celebration xxxx
