When the kids were little, I never bought sugary cereals exceot during the octaves of Christmas and Easter. Accordingly, as soon as we got home from midnight Mass or Easter Vigil, the kids would tear into a bowl of Super Sugar Bombs.
In college, our sons have become evangelists of this tradition. First they welcome friends into the Church at Easter Vigil (more than 30 were received last night!), and then everyone celebrates with a sugar cereal party. They sent me a wonderful photo of more than 25 kids eating a selection of diabetes-inducing cereals.
Maybe nothing else I did or said will last, but that will.
Happy Easter! Nothing sweeter than the joy of having a Savior.
