I hadn't read your original post about it, but on your recommendation, I did download it and now I CANNOT stop listening to it! I love it. So, got any other good songs/albums/recordings to recommend? Have a blessed Easter. You have surely blessed me. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for posting the link to the song that you raved about.

I know there will be groans from many readers... but I did see a similar life-size (probably about 4 feet tall) bunny for sale at Marshall's just last week. So, for those of you who can't resist... check them out. I will not be the person responsible for buying the last one and depriving you of your chance!

And your other non-sensitive grandchildren won’t like the giant bunny all that much — they just pretend to like it a lot to make you happy because they love you. Just spend more time with them or take them to the park.

And really, think about it.. where will you store a life sized bunny? Do you really have room?
