Dear Dragon,
Last night in a desperate plea to not sleep, you asked me if the Easter Bunny hid the easter stuff or if I did. Here’s how that conversation played out:
Papa: What do you think?
Dragon: I think you do it. Am I right?
P: Why do you think that?
D: Because it would be a very long way for him to go all the way here and all the way back.
P (Trying not to laugh): Where do you think the Easter Bunny comes from?
D (With all the confidence of a 5yo): Very far away.
P: So why can Santa do it and not the Easter Bunny?
D (No hesitation at all): Because Santa has a magic sleigh and the Easter Bunny doesn’t. So am I right?
This is the point where I panicked and worried that I might say something that would cause you to stop believing in the Easter Bunny and/or Santa.
I told you that it was really well thought out and we’d talk about it the next day. That’s today as I write this letter. Then I said goodnight and ran away despite you still asking.
It only occured to me later that you seemed to firmly believe the Easter Bunny existed but that he can’t deliver all the stuff. I wonder if you think that he ships it to us?
As I write this, I need to go wake you, your brother, and your mother. I hope a good night’s sleep will make you forget the questions.
You’re very clever and absolutely adorable.
Love you little Dragon,
Papa
