  1. Easter Sunday

    Share Share Post
    We have holidays from school for Easter Sunday and for a few days after. If you get up early Easter Sunday you will see the Sun dancing in honour of Our Savour who rose from the dead on the first Easter Sunday. Everyone eats three eggs at least when they come home from Mass. We eat as many eggs as we can on that day because we are not allowed to eat so many any other time.
    I like like Easter Sunday morning very well.
