Goodbye Mr. Bunny

Yesterday JD had to be the grown-up and do something I could never do.
Warning....sad story.

It all started when we got home from our long weekend in Wyoming. After unpacking the car Adeline and I were playing in the yard and JD was watering the flowers. In disapointment we discovered our neighborhood bunny injured, scared and hiding in our backyard. He usually prefers the rock wall in the front yard or the big lilac bush in the back. He was hurt pretty bad. {JD called animal control...just to double check there weren't any new wild-bunny rescue networks that we weren't aware of} After no luck there we decied to leave Mr. Bunny for the night and check on him in the morning. A couple hours later, after putting Addie to bed I was editing photos in the back room and heard the most horrible screaching. Mr. Bunny was crying out in pain I told JD! He went outside to investigate and found a stray cat had cornered the injured bunny under our truck and was attacking it. JD came inside and we pondered whether to let nature take its course...but the sound of the poor animal and the thought of having to clean up after the cat...JD decided to put Mr. Bunny out of his misery.

Shovel in hand, JD rose up to the night's challenge.

Goodby Mr. Bunny, you'll be missed.
