Dear Carmen,
I read your story Easter Eggs in your book In My Family. Your story and your beautiful pictures brought back a pretty memory when I was a child. I remembered when we were kids, my mother, my grandmother, my sisters and I decorated Easter eggs. My mother and my grandmother put blue, red, purple and green in the eggshells. It was a lot of fun filling them with confetti. Sometimes my younger sisters put oil and perfume inside the eggshells, that was funny. When we broke the eggshells over their head they shouted with excitement.
Thank you so much, Carmen, for a pretty story about eggshells. It brought to my mind a beautiful memory when I was a girl.
Sincerely,
Minerva
