And then there were...four!

So it’s been very busy and I haven’t had a chance to catch up with you all recently.  We of the rabbit variety are very very busy over the festive period.  It is a little known fact that we are key elements of the STPT (Santa’s Toy Preparation Team) and work closely with his elves…well what did you think we did for the rest of the year!?  Easter only takes up about six weeks!  Any who, I've taken some time to recuperate only to find that my sister and I are no longer the “Little Lady’s favourite toy”.

This is an outrage.

We have been usurped by two other, and need I say, inferior toys. 

This is Jelly Cat:

And this is the aptly named Smedward (short for smelly Edward):

These two have usurped mine and Josie #2’s place in the sucking order.  We are the last ones needed for comfort and a good old night time chew.  We are devastated.  We have spent the last two weeks moping around, buried at the bottom of the toy box despite Mummy’s best efforts to get the Little Lady to play with us.  But then came a moment we had lost all hope of:

I must admit it felt like a beautiful moment of reconciliation and also a moment when I could see beyond mine and Josie #2's bright pink fur and look at the bigger picture.  We all must be friends, a team, a family willing to look after the Little Lady when she needs us.  It also means I don’t have to spend too much time lost under a pile of dirty washing or be hung up to dry by my ears…which is much more painful than you humans can appreciate.

Then we all received some wonderful news and we’re really looking forward to the opportunities and challenges it will present for our little furry family of four…

The Little Lady is expecting a baby brother or sister!!!!

So really it’s a good thing as our furry family has expanded because our human family is expanding and I’m sure our furry comforting skills will be needed more than ever by July 31st!
