Our Easter Bunnies

We found our big dog digging at a spot in the flower bed and when we investigated what she was trying to get at, discovered that it as a nest of bunnies. There were three in the nest still, one had become a snack for the dog and another was ouside of the nest and had passed on.

We made a box nest in the kitchen and put a lamp by it for warmth. This is how we fed the babies, and although we took great pains to love and care for them, they died one by one - the last on Easter morning. So there were many sad kids in our home last week. We are comforted that God knows each person and creature and loves them all. He will watch over this little bunny family until we can see them again. The kids have such tender hearts and had come to love these tiny creatures. We did our very best to care for them, but they really needed their mommy! We all need a mommy!
