Gifts Of Spring      

The gift of giving doesn't just apply to the Christmas season. Max Eliopulos and his sister, Alexis, discovered that the snowy Niwot Easter egg hunt on March 26 held more for them than just eggs and chocolate.

In his single-minded quest to find a golden egg, Max, a Niwot Elementary School kindergarten student, decided he wanted to leave the candy for other children. And sure enough, he found a golden egg, or so he thought.

When he tried to exchange that egg for a prize, he found out that his egg was just plain yellow. Broken-hearted, he and his mother, Cindy Silvis, went to meet Alexis, a Niwot Elementary School second-grader, at the petting zoo.

Unaware of what had happened to her brother, Alexis announced that she had exchanged her golden egg for a giant airplane for Max. Then, when they arrived at home, the phone rang. Alexis answered it and received the news that she had won the large stuffed bunny from the pancake breakfast raffle.

Gifts of spring come in all forms.
