lost bunny
October 4, 2011
When Grace was a year old, we visited Nana after her double knee replacement surgery. It was around Easter time and a friend had given Nana a cute little bunny that Grace was instantly drawn to. A few months later we visited Nana…and again, Grace was drawn to the bunny so Nana gave it to her. From then on, Grace had a buddy…or should I say bunny. The bunny’s name has always been “bunny” …even when I tried to get Grace to give it a “real” name, all she wanted to call it was “bunny.”
Well, in the last couple of days this “bunny” has gone missing. We have torn the house, the cars…everything..apart to find this bunny. No signs of her.
Today when Grace got home from school, she asked for some blank paper. She sat down at her little table and got to work. Before long she brought me two pieces of paper that she had decorated with “bunny missing” messages and pictures of her and bunny together. She begged and begged and begged and begged for me to help her hang the signs on the trees in front of our house. That way, if someone else has seen bunny they could return her to her owner.
It made me cry…seriously. It was so sweet…so innocent…and so desperate. And she did it all on her own.
I’ve got to find that bunny! I’m on a mission and it’s driving me crazy. I tore the house A-P-A-R-T tonight looking for it.
Tonight Grace prayed asking God to help us find her bunny.
Please, Lord, help us find bunny!!!
