Isabelle is my animal lover. Since I can not give her a baby brother or sister myself any longer (I've had a hysterectomy for medical reasons), I rejoice in watching her love on her animals. Yesterday, Daddy caved (after Mommy's urging, and well out of Isabelle's hearing) and bought his precious girl a bunny. She picked out the sweetest of the bunch and promptly named him "Benny" Ears Kronz. When they drove up, I was on the back porch cutting the boys' hair. We could hear her exuberantly exclaiming out her rolled down window all the way up the driveway, "I've got a bunny!! I've got a bunny!!" I swear we are truly suckers for the smiles of that little one...
I'm hoping that within a year we'll be able to add to our animals here on our little "farm". I'd love to get goats (to milk), a couple of cows (for beef), and a lamb or two (just to look at -- I think they are beautiful -- at a distance. Smile.). Of course, the neighbors just called with another colt being born ..... do you suppose Daddy would give in to my smiles this time?
