Easter Traditions

Like any holiday, each of us celebrates Easter differently.

I remember that as a little girl, my mother would bring me shopping for a new Easter dress. Every year I would pick a different colour. Then I would eagerly await Easter morning so that I could wear it. Sadly, many Easter Sundays in my part of the world were too cold to wear the new spring dress.

When I was thirteen, my godmother gave me a lovely gold cross on a gold chain. I was excited as it was my first piece of “grown-up” jewelry. That cross is no longer the first piece of jewelry I reach for, but I do take it out on Easter Sunday and wear it in remembrance of her.

Do you have any special traditions for Easter?
