Easter Sunday Traditions

Happy Easter, everyone! It's such a nice day and it was super nice yesterday, too. I love this time of year when it's just starting to warm up. It's not too hot but it's not too cold. My family and I went to the Sunrise Church service at my church. My brother and I were both in it. He played his saxophone and i had to do the greeting and the opening prayer. We had breakfast after church - yummy! There were pancakes, sausage, eggs, and so much more. I was stuffed. So, anyways to my point. My Mom was telling me about Easter when she was little and she said that it's so different now. She said that every business was closed and most restaurants were closed. Grocery stores were even closed. You had to get your groceries the day before. Today everything is open. If you want McDonald's for Easter dinner you can sure have it. It kind of makes me sad. Like we're missing out on all the good times. Workers should get Easter off to spend with their families. It just doesn't seem fair. Easter and other holidays like Christmas don't seem as important any more. I wish they were. Today we are always running and I think we could take a break 2 days out of the year.
