This little cute, fuzzy, bunny has come to our house. He goes on adventures with my kids every night. He is charming and witty and is NEVER boring. He helps my children get out of the worse jams. Who is this bunny and where did he come from? This is Flopsie. He is an imaginary friend who comes to life in my stories. The children love this character so much that they beg me to tell them a new story every night. "Mom, what will Flopsie do tonight?" I will smile and tell them they will need to wait and see. OH THE EXCITEMENT!! Children go running off down the hall as fast as they can to brush their teeth and go to the bathroom. They jump into their beds and pull the covers up over their heads and giggle knowing that a new adventure will be happening.
The story always starts the same.....Once upon a time there was a little bunny named Flopsie.... The children giggle with muffled laughter under the covers. They are hanging on every word that comes out of my mouth. Oh the happiness i feel bringing my children joy!
Our story started out with a little boy who turns his hair blue by accident. He befriends a bunny and they go off with each other trying to undo the mess, before the little boy's mother finds out. The children giggle when we get to the part that the bunny has a grand idea to put mud in his hair.."Maybe this will get the blue out?!?" says, the bunny. Sashi yells at the tops of her lungs "NO MOM, IT WON'T COME OUT THAT WAY!" Why i ask? "Mom the mud is dirty...giggle...it won't work." Ian is listening with huge eyes. I love his eyes they tell all. He wants more and he loves bunnies and why cant i tell these stories all night long!!
Tonight i ended the blue hair story, but tomorrow i can guarantee there will be a new adventure...

Too, too cute! You're such a good mom. No bunnies on this end but we do have the exciting adventures of Rinn, Queese and Lemease with their Dam and Mop. But I've never thought of such fun things as dying hair blue or some such.
