Once upon a time...

...there was a bunny-bear (a bear in a bunny costume). This was the softest and the most cuddly stuffed animal around. A little boy named Tyson received the bunny-bear from his grandparents before he was even born. Tyson's bunny-bear slept in his crib and it wasn't long before Tyson started to cuddle with him and hold on to his ears while he sucked his thumb. Tyson loved his bunny-bear very much!
As time went on, his name was shortened to "bunny" and he received MUCH love. He became Tyson's lovey. Tyson never went anywhere without him. He was loved so much that he stunk all the time and lost a lot of his beauty. (Not that this matters to the little boy!)
It was hard for Tyson's parents to keep bunny clean because Tyson wanted him all the time. Cleaning usually started while Tyson was eating breakfast. His parents would sneak bunny away. Sometimes Tyson didn't notice, but most often bunny was still in the washing machine and needed to be dried before Tyson could have him back. So, the parents had a great idea to ask Santa for a new bunny for Christmas.
Santa brought Tyson a new bunny for Christmas this year. Tyson calls it his Daddy bunny. His older bunny is the Mommy bunny; she's smaller. He loves them both, but his mommy bunny is the only one that he will hold the ears of while sucking his thumb. Perhaps in time the daddy bunny will also get special treatment.
At least it will make the parent's cleaning job a little bit easier.
THE END



Tyson after opening his Santa present. I think he was kind of confused about his new bunny.



Still loving his old bunny.



This picture doesn't do justice to the color difference of the old/new bunny. Notice that his old bunny doesn't have a smile left either. I guess I should say that the new bunny is soooooo soft!



I just had to show you how loved his old bunny is. She (since he calls it his mama bunny) is squashed with love.
