Brandy's Baby Bunny

Well it has been a few days since I have posted on here so I thought I would get caught up. Hopefully this will not be extremely long, if so, sorry!

Let me begin with a little story about my niece Brandy. When she and Bailey were babies they had to go into the hospital because of their ears. I remember having a really bad day at work and not having the time to go and get what I thought was a “decent” gift for the babies. I ended up buying them something in Children’s Hospital Gift Shop and was very disappointed. I bought Bailey a monster truck and for Brandy I bought a pink stuffed bunny. For anyone that knows Brandy, you know this bunny. From the time she wrapped her arms around “Baby Bunny”, they were together everywhere! She would wrap her little fingers around the ribbon, put her thumb in her mouth and “Baby Bunny” would cover her little face. “Baby Bunny” was her everything! After a few years and a few minor re-stuffs, I went on the search to locate another bunny. To my surprise, Children’s Hospital had one left. I made a mad dash downtown and bought the prized bunny. After a few more years, “Baby Bunny” #2 had a few rough times and I was never able to locate a new one. Believe me, I tried! But for some reason Brandy’s MEAN Mom and Dad decided that she was too big for the bunny and they made her give it up. :( However, sneaky Aunt Michelle has a few secrets! When she had to give her up, for some reason that I really don’t remember, she gave the original “Baby Bunny” back to ME!!! So, when she comes to spend the night with us, I let her sleep with her. Aunt Shell – the hero! She got so excited when I asked her did she need a baby to sleep with and then I presented her with her best friend. Within seconds, she grabbed the bunny and was fast asleep. But being the “big girl” that she is, the next morning; we put “Baby Bunny” back to bed until the next time she stays with us. It was so sweet and I could not pass up taking a picture of her wrapping that bunny in her arms.
