Well, I know we got some little kids in the house today.

Any children in the house? Can I hear you? Anybody here?

One of those, that was a husky child.

Why don't know what you think about when you think about Easter?

For me, I tend to naturally start thinking about my childhood,

and kind of the magic and wonder of hunting for Easter eggs and whatnot.

But now I'm a parent. I've got three little kids.

And so now I start to more often think about their Easter experience

of what they're going to do and hunting eggs and whatnot.

But as I do that inevitably, I just start to contrast my Easter experience

with theirs. And I got to say, there's been some progress

Easter bunny outfits are significantly better than they were in the 70s and 80s.

I remember for me, I grew up in We Would Hunt Easter Eggs on Randolph Air Force Base.

And I remember for me, we just thought it was part of the game.
