Just finished re-reading 'Charlotte's Web' by E.B. White for the umpteenth time, and for me it shows me many lessons that we all need to learn and remember. Actually, it is the story of the facts of life from birth to death to dealing with other societal issues like dealing with family relationships like Fern does when saving the 'runt' as well as just plain growing up issues, and learning how to accept what happens to all involved in living life and making various kinds of friendships and still learning that there is a higher power to live our lives.

An Easter Basket
Who remembers waking up Easter morning searching for their Easter basket hidden by that elusive bunny? Who also remembers what they usually got in said basket. Mine was usually filled with a chocolate bunny and a white cross surrounded by foiled eggs and jellybeans and those colored hard-boiled eggs we dyed the night before. My Easter basket was usually hidden behind the television or behind the curtains. Today, I know some baskets are filled with toys and candy of various kinds, but they always have a chocolate bunny. What was in your Easter baskets if you do not mind sharing?

"Such a timeless story—full of life lessons, love, and friendship. Your reflection is a great reminder of why Charlotte’s Web still touches hearts!"
Well-wrought! One of my favorites as a young student, for sure, and your summary is quite apt!
