[QUOTE="mattsmom27, post: 32885, member: 50"] thank you all for your suggestions. I had a fleeting thought of calling easy child's father, but I say fleeting because he's being a total difficult child right now and I'm not getting sucked in by him. Unfortunate but the way it is [img]:frown:[/img] As for swapping with someone, it is a brilliant idea. The problem is that I tried this year to minimize "treats" so the bunny was bringing some small foil eggs to hide for a hunt and one special boxed chocolate bunny (I may be trading the boxed bunny and the type of foil eggs I bought with my cousin, seems her son went snooping too!!!).
