Everyone either loves or hates celebrating April Fools' Day — there's no in-between. And for those who fall in the latter category, the day can be a tough one to get through. When I was growing up, school was always a scary place on Apr. 1, because you never knew what kind of prank someone was going to pull on you to get a laugh, often at someone else's expense. In 2018, however, April Fools' Day actually falls on a Sunday, which you might expect would make things easier — but, it's not just any Sunday, it's Easter Sunday. So, if you celebrate Easter, the day is takes on two different meanings. While you may have been ready to post a picture of yourself killing it at the Easter egg hunt, now you also need to think of Instagram captions for April Fools' Day.

Plus, there's the added element that you'll likely be spending Easter with your family.
