Easter Monday Flowers

Today is Easter Monday, which is a part of Easter that we heard of for the first time today. That reminds me; we got some photos last week of daffodils and a purple flower we called a crocus—which is actually a hyacinth. So, I got another picture of the daffodils and hyacinths, which are popular flowers for Easter.

I’m not sure why we’ve never heard of Easter Monday before. I looked it up and it’s part of Eastertide, and it’s the second day of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It’s also called Bright Monday.

In the U.S., Easter Monday is not a federal holiday, but it is in over 100 countries. I guess there’s a White House Easter egg roll, which I’ve never heard either. It’s observed in certain places in North Dakota.

Happy Easter Monday!
