Thank you to all military veterans and their families on this Veterans Day. We are headed to RI this weekend for Craig’s Dad’s last football game (he’s retiring this year as a teacher and coach). He’s had an amazing career and I’m sure it’s going to be a big day of celebrations for him. Looking forward to seeing friends and family this weekend (and getting my hair done, lol).
Wishing all of you a great weekend. Here’s the best of the week…

The post on the Velveteen Rabbit made me cry . . I do remember reading it to my kids but I never truly understood the real meaning . My son raised rabbits and he showed them ( French Lops) at 4H when we lived on our farm in the Berkshires . Until a few weeks before his death as an adult he was building a hutch for two of those same breed bunnies he was expecting . He even had a French Lop Rabbit in his apartment that ate the carpet as a pretty much in his 40’s adult. I don’t know if he ever got the meaning , but it made me think and cry. Thank you so much for posting it ❤️
