A Meaningful Easter Moment

Tonight's Bible reading: Matthew chapter 27 -- the story of the arrest, crucifixion, and burial of Jesus.

Me (after reading and discussing the passage with Andrew, who really was comprehending and asking intelligent questions up to this point): ...and that's what we remember tonight. That this day, many years ago, Jesus had already died on the cross and was in the tomb.

Andrew (snuggling his head against me trustingly): Mom?

Me (expecting another deep theological question): Yes?

Andrew: Does the Easter Bunny bring our baskets tonight when we're asleep?
