Easter Egg fun

Last night was our Easter egg dying eggtravaganza. I'd like to say that the kids had a great time, but I'm not sure that they did. I guess maybe it's not as bad a I think it was, but I was not the best mom in the world last night. Natey wanted to reach into the cups to grab his eggs which would instantly turn his skin a fancy new color. I tried and tried to have him use the little wire doodad that comes with the coloring kit, but it was obviously more direction than he was willing to take.

Claire was busy coloring with the wax crayon that came in the kit saying "Where the color go Mama? Where the color go?" After we were done coloring eggs, Peach went to bed while Natey and I snuggled on the couch. I said "Did you have fun coloring eggs?" He looked at me as only he could. He has this look that he uses when he knows that I want his answer to be yes, but he wants to say no. I said "Was it at least ok?" He smiled and said that it was. I'm not sure he'd do it with me again tonight if I asked him to.

Here are some pictures. Sure they look like they are having fun, but I still have my reservations about the evening. Tonight we're going to make birds nests. Maybe I'm a glutton for punishment.
