Looks like a …

This story may tell as much about my gardening skills as Reid’s world view … As we got out of the car one day recently, Reid looked at the hydrangea bush in our front garden and said, “It looks like [1] The Runaway Bunny.” I immediately knew the illustration to which she referred. She was right. It did look just like [1] The Runaway Bunny! My procrastination in pruning had paid off. (Like I need encouragement to procrastinate ;+) Since then, though, the bunny’s back legs have broken but the branch is still attached by a small piece of bark. I’m regretting not having taken a picture promptly and considering whether to duct tape it back together so that I can take a picture of our Runaway Bunny and the little girl who discovered it.

Now if I can only remember to tell this story to Grandma Joyce, who bought this book for Reid before she was born…
