Seven

There have been a number of things that have wandered into my life but this was the most unexpected! One snowy January day back in 2007 we looked out into the back yard and what did we see but a little black and white rabbit. Now this was not any wild rabbit but a dwarf breed of rabbit that obivously escaped from somewhere. Well of course we immediately went to the feed store and got rabbit food. Who in the world keeps rabbit food around if you don't have a rabbit! We put out the food and water and he came and ate and drank. He wouldn't let us get too close to him but he did eventually come as close as the patio. Jeff and Jason of course went right to the job of thinking of a name for the poor little guy. They came up with "Seven" I didn't even ask why I just knew that it would stick. So, the rabbit's name was "Seven" Every day we would look for him and worry if he didn't show up, but every day he came. Long after Winter we were visited by our cute little friend "Seven" for a few more months. We wanted to try and catch him to protect him but he seemed quite happy with his arrangement and went on with his life. One day he didn't come and the next day no sightings of "Seven" We never knew what happened to him but we were happy that he picked us to share a part of his life with him and I think we made at least that time for him easier.
