A
When I was a little girl, every Sunday my family of six would put on our best clothes and go to Sunday School and then church. The kids in elementary school would all meet together to sing songs, and then divide into groups based on their ages.
One Easter Sunday, all the kids arrived with big stories about what the Easter Bunny (复活节小兔) had brought. While all of the kids shared their stories happily, one young boy, called Bobby, sat quietly. A teacher, noticing this, said to him, “And what did the Easter Bunny bring you?” He answered, “My mom locked the door by accident so the Easter Bunny couldn’t get inside because he hadn’t got a key.”
This sounded like a reasonable idea to all of us kids, so we kept on going with the stories. But My mom knew the true story. Bobby’s mom was a single parent, and she guessed they just couldn’t afford the Easter Bunny.
After Sunday School was oven everyone went off to church. When my dad came to meet us, my mom said that we were going home instead. At home, she explained that to make Bobby feel better, we were going to pretend to be the Easter Bunny, make a basket of our candies for him and leave it at church. We all donated (捐赠) some to the basket, and went back to church. There, mom hung the basket over the hanger (挂钩) and attached a note:
Dear Bobby,
I’m sorry I missed your house last night. Happy Easter.
Love
The Easter Bunny
