CHAPTER 30 – HAPPY HOPPY BUNNY
Music seemed to fill the house a lot lately. Dad would play music through the speakers, and sometimes, he’d sing along. “’Tis the season,” he said,“They’re Christmas carols!” Dad was careful not to play the music too loud. He knew Abigail had very sensitive ears.
Sometimes, Dad would sing to her. “Abigail, I made up a song for you. It’s not a Christmas carol, but it goes to the tune of “Holly Jolly Christmas,” he said. Dad began singing:
I’ve got a happy, hoppy, bunny
She’s the cutest bun of all,
Chestnut coat with big brown eyes,
A tail that’s really small.
I’ve got a happy, hoppy, bunny
And she makes me laugh a lot,
When she jumps in the air and flips around
And runs and plays and hops.
Hop, hop, the bunny goes
All around the house,
Hop, hop, the bunny goes
As quiet as a mouse!
Happy hoppy
Happy hoppy
Happy hoppy, ho!
I’ve got a happy, hoppy, bunny
And if you see her by your feet,
Say hello, and pet her nose
And give her a little treat.
I’ve got a happy, hoppy, bunny
And you can help buns too,
Give them a home with lots of love
And make them happy too!
Abigail liked it when Dad sang to her. It made her feel special. And now, she even had her own song!
