Visiting the Easter Bunny

A few weeks ago we took the boys to the mall to get big boy shoes for Richie (size 4 1/2) and to visit the Easter Bunny.  Richie found the bunny to be absolutely fascinating.  Anthony immediately recognized that he wasn't real and proceeded to stage whisper to me.  I told him not to say it out loud so he didn't hurt the bunny's feelings.

Last night Anthony asked me if the Easter Bunny was real.  I asked him what he thought.  His response was that the one at the mall was fake and he could see the person inside.  I suggested that it might be one of the Easter Bunny's helpers.  Anthony didn't like that answer very much, but did proceed to explain that the Easter Bunny was busy getting everything ready for Easter.
