None of us can quite remember how and when bunny came to the family. But we all remember the YEARS Camille has LOVED Bunny.
When she was little, she said her 3 favorite things in the world were:1. Sucking her thumb (Luckily that stage has passed)
2. Her daddy (Luckily for her daddy that stage is still alive and well)
3. Bunny
Bunny has been EVERYWHERE with us. Bunny has cruised the Caribbean, gone to Disneyland more than most children and has been on every family vacation, except one. That time we forgot Bunny and Camille cried and cried and cried.
One time at Disneyland, the girls got into a tug-of-war with Bunny's ear. I was upstairs in my brother's hotel room and heard a scream like I had NEVER heard. I thought one of the girls was seriously injured. Nope they were just fine. But Bunny suffered a broken ear. Camille had Bunny in one hand and Abby had Bunny's ear in the other.
Bunny has been lost, only to be found in the pantry behind the cereal. I think that had "big brother" written all over it.
Bunny has been to the dentist, doctor and hospital.
Bunny has been a loyal and true friend through the years. 
Bunny has been loved SO much that Bunny, who used to be white is now permanently gray.
Bunny has been in HUNDREDS of family photos. 
Bunny has travelled everywhere Camille has gone in 8 years.
So imagine the horror last night when she came downstairs with "AN EMERGENCY!" Bunny's ear broke off AGAIN. This time it was not due to a tug-of-war. I think it was due to old age. Luckily, Camille realized that Bunny needed surgery and would be healed soon. Few tears were shed and fears were calmed.

sounds like it is time for a REAL bunny. I'll bring one the next time I'm in Salt Lake! :)
Bryndee had a stuffed cat that she named Mighty Jungle...Go figure! Anyway Mighty Jungle was a part of our family for many many years. Like bunny, Mighty Jungle was in lots of pictures, always right next to her when she was sick, and went on many trips. Then one day Mighty Jungle wasn't there anymore. I really don't know what happened to him. But he was there when she needed him most.
