“EASTER in FLORIDA – 55 YEARS Ago”
“Remember – EASTER – 04/14/1963”
Easter Sunday and an “EASTER BUNNY” – is all foreign information… for a fifteenth month old baby – – and we can see – – that baby Al – – sitting in the “high-chair” just has no real idea of what all that stuff is doing on the dining room table – – – and so early in the morning?
The table is set up … for four boys – – Tom in high school gets the smallest basket – – and for baby Al – – the youngest boy gets the largest basket – – – but it is not the size of the basket that makes you feel good – – it is all of the sweet treats that are spread out on the table … that – – when being bigger and older – you know – – there is more that your hand can reach for and grab – – all without any help – – every thing on the table is there – – for each boy to enjoy while they just share and even enjoy sharing with their class mates when they can come over!
“The early bird gets the worm” – – he who gets up early – – can start to try out some of those colorful and fancy wrapped candies – – mostly chocolate – – who wants any thing else – -but who will get the big “Chocolate Bunny” – – some of the larger size… are now made hollow inside – such a big disappointment – – I always enjoyed the solid “Chocolate Bunny” as you would have more of the good stuff – – and the longer it will last – – the more you think about “EASTER” and all those goodies — – I can see you and your friends are enjoying “EASTER” – too!”
That’s big brother, Lee serving baby brother, Al with some of the “EASTER” treats … the ones he knows he can give to baby Al – – but … he is big enough – and knows what he likes – – as Lee has been around a little longer – – and NOW – – can tell – his little baby brother, Al – – all about the way – that things happen on “EASTER” – – so nice to be the bigger brother – – the one who NOW knows and has all of the answers – – just knows so much – – for being “so” big … four years old.
“PHOTOS” taken along time ago – – always – have a good story – – – – and help one to remember the “GOOD” old days!” *** ******* D.V.
