Can you pick out the 'real' bunny?

An excerpt from "The Velveteen Rabbit,"
also called "How Toys Become Real,"
​a children's novel by Margery Williams and
​illustrated by William Nicholson
Picture
“Weeks passed, and the little Rabbit grew very old and shabby, but the Boy loved him just as much. He loved him so hard that he loved all his whiskers off, and the pink lining to his ears turned grey, and his brown spots faded. He even began to lose his shape, and he scarcely looked like a rabbit any more, except to the Boy. To him he was always beautiful, and that was all that the little Rabbit cared about. He didn’t mind how he looked to other people, because the nursery magic had made him Real, and when you are Real shabbiness doesn’t matter.”

“One winter morning Peter woke up and looked out the window.
Snow had fallen during the night.
It covered everything as far as he could see.”

This little cupcake from Wegman's reminded Evan of the children's book character, Georgie...
Picture

As children, my husband I both loved the Georgie books by Robert Bright. Georgie -- the shy, gentle ghost was a great friend to Miss Oliver the owl and Herman the cat. The title to the left is one of my favorites!

Our home is unusual in that we have TWO Halloween birthdays in our family -- my father and husband. Growing up, Evan LOVED going trick-or-treating, then coming home and opening birthday presents!  My Mom used to make cheeseburgers with the cheese shaped as carved pumpkin faces. So creative!  She also made by hand the best costumes. I'll never forget the 'bride' or 'princess' costume she lovingly made me in kindergarden. She must have spent HOURS on it... I felt sooooo special!  Thanks, Mom!
