She's Baaa-aack!

I drove to pick up Elsa from my mom and dad today. She was the first passenger in their new car, which was very exciting. She talked my ear off the entire drive back home, and didn't stop talking until after dinner. She sewed her own pillow and blanket (with help from grandma), baked three small loaves of banana bread for her and her brothers and a large loaf for me and Adam, made magnets, an Easter bunny, and paper Easter eggs. She took a long adventure walk with grandma to the woods, rode her scooter and watched a few movies with grandma and grandpa. She said she had the best time and had the best dream ever, where her hair turned unicorn rainbows. 

We thought all was well until I decided to try a new way to decorate Easter eggs. We put rice in a bag, added food coloring and then shook the egg in it. It worked just fine, but Elsa was extremely disappointed in the whole thing. She told me that I "ruined Easter". Then she started sobbing uncontrollably and stomped to her bedroom. 

Adam tried to talk to her and even tried to make her feel better by fixing Forky (the fork from Toy Story 4). Well, when he tried to glue on Forky's foot the other foot (made of popsicle sticks) fell off, too. More sobbing commenced and we gave up. I just sent Kale in to her bedroom to check on her. I'm going to guess that she worked so hard the last few days and was on her best behavior that she is simply exhausted.

Elsa will be heading back to St. Cloud on Sunday for a few more days of distanc learning with grandma and grandpa. She goes back to school on April 7th. Fingers crossed we can get through the last two months of school with no more quarantines!
