Easter was Ostara (and many other names) long before the christians got hold of it. It celebrates the arrival of spring and the time of the Earth's renewal. The bunnies, chicks, and eggs are all part of the ancient Pagan festivals. Celebrate if you want, altho if you mention you're celebrating the Pagan equinox, you might horrify your traditional neighbors. >D
Many congratulations on Alex's reading skills! I'd be proud, too. Reading is the key to everything. Good job!
