Pajama Rama Day

Who is the spring bunny and why does anyone wear their pj's to school? Well, you'd have to
be a kindergartener to know! Yesterday was the little girl's very first pajama day. Initially, they weren't too sure about the whole 'wear your pajamas around in public' thing
...it was perhaps too good to be true. It is a well known fact that mom always says, "Girls, you have to get dressed before you can go outside!". After some convincing, they grabbed their pillows and a cuddly toy each and headed off to school
in all their pajama adorned beauty.

There they found fellow pj wearers all sporting the anxious, 'I hope mom didn't get this wrong look,' which quickly turned to multiple smiles of delight as they each saw bunny slippers, fuzzy bathrobes and fluffy pillows in the hands of their classmates.

The highlight of this wonderful day followed the children's tracking of mysterious bunny prints, first within their room, then to the first grade classroom, followed by the ...gasp...principal's office (oh, the awe)...then downstairs to the gymnasium and finally ...outside where they met the perpetrator of all this excitement; the Spring Bunny! The spring bunny was a real bunny they could pet and snuggle.

He "gave" them baskets of candy and goodies and was an affectionate receiver of the kindergarteners' attention. They were quick to learn that the "spring bunny" is not an easter bunny...and that Easter isn't about bunnies at all; In Sarah's words, "EEE...ster is about how 'da son of GOD (strong emphasis here) came alive again (new emphasis here) after he Died on the cwoss! It's NOT", says Sarah," about bunnies!"
