The Hatching

Now that spring is in full swing, there will be egg hunts everywhere! I even saw a basket of plastic eggs outside of a Trader Joe's and considered being the lucky keeper, but opted to leave it for a child to find instead. That's probably who the basket was intended for, although egg hunts for adults are becoming a thing now. Whether or not egg hunts for adults tip the "weird" scale too far for you, there's no shame in participating in this week's writing prompt.

During the annual spring egg hunt, your child is delighted to find an egg larger than their head. Not only is it huge, it's also warm… and looks unlike any bird egg you've ever seen.
