Poor, stymied Mildred. Though I rather enjoyed watching her impatience ferment, I showed mercy.
I said, "You must open The Door Between Two Worlds."
Cryptic. Thanks so much, Mama.
So she went to the chicken coop.
Even after I told her that one of the worlds was The Outside, she was stumped. She walked the perimeter of the house and opened both doors we use, completely forgetting about the one behind which I'd wedged her basket.
A few blatant hints later, and she found it. The intrigue! The excitement!
Tune in next year for more of the same.
I LOVE this Easter tradition you have with your family! It is such fun to see their expressions when they find the treasure!
