My poor eyes....(alittle drama is always good, right?)

Aren't they CUTE!!

A couple of weeks ago, we discovered 2 little, baby bunnies living in our backyard. We didn't know where they lived exactly, but they were always in our backyard. Well, yesterday something very tragic happened. We were working in the backyard, doing some lovely spring yard work, and our little dog Coco was running around in the backyard. Coco was underneath the deck going crazy. She was running back and forth between a pipe laying on the ground. She was yipping, her tail was straight, and her ears were perked up. She kept trying to squeeze into the pipe.

I told Warren to watch Coco because I think she found an animal. I than remembered the bunnies and told Warren to be careful because they might be in the pipe. Well, Warren lifted up some wood on the ground and found a tiny burrow. (That answers the question of where they lived!) He covered the burrow with a piece of metal and called Coco over to sniff it out. Coco wasn't interested. She wanted the pipe. So, Warren lifted up the pipe slightly to look into the end. And - you guessed it? Out slid the 2 baby bunnies from the other end. Coco immediately grabbed one and ..... The other bunny just froze scared out of it's mind. Taylor and I started screaming, crying, and yelling. Warren told me very firmly to get Taylor upstairs. Poor Taylor was crying and saying, "No Coco. No Coco!" and I got a little sick in the stomach.

I can't get the image of my little dog and that bunny out of my head. I keep thinking about the little bunny's brother or sister, trying to keep itself warm and being scared. Taylor keeps talking about the event and crying. She told everyone. On the other hand, Warren is pretty proud of his dog. Warren asked me, "Is Coco walking around very proud today?"

The other bunny has not shown itself since.

On a lighter note - we seem to have our own little bunny in the house. Kaylee has discovered Wheat Grass and loves snacking on it. I know? Weird? At least, it is healthy!!

This morning, Taylor was looking through the window trying to find the other bunny. She kept shaking her head, saying "All Gone..."
