Thank goodness for bunnies!

Praise the good Lord above for the new bunnies He brought to the pet store in the mall!

Seriously.

For the last month Cale has asked to go see the dogs at the mall nearly every day, but what he really means when he asks for the dogs is that he wants to see the bunnies.  Perhaps with Easter just around the corner the bunny supply has been low and there haven't been any bunnies for the last month.  Cale points to the bunny display area and very sweetly does his sign for "bunny", and when I tell him there are no bunnies he gets that infamous frown on his face and makes me lift up the little bunny "house" to prove to him that there are indeed no bunnies.  He doesn't throw a fit, he doesn't cry, but he frowns and keeps his sign for "bunny" up in the air for everyone to see until we are completely out of the mall and  sometimes even the entire car ride home.

But last night when Cale asked to go see the dogs we were ecstatic to see that there were four new bunnies for him to ooh and aah over!!!  He was so happy and kept his nose smashed up against the glass until the bunnies were no longer exciting and he realized there were fish and turtles to still be seen.  Who knew a bunny could make a kid so happy.  Maybe that means when it's time to get his picture taken with Easter Bunny he won't be freaked out.  Here's hoping.

I love how the littlest of things can bring so much joy to his life.
