tawny

we would like you to meet...tawny.

this is our precious new bunny.


buster brown is getting to know her.


a long time ago we had a bunny named treasure...she had been
abandoned by her mother and we got her when she was just three weeks old.
she only lived about a month or so.


abbey was heart~broken and has never forgotten treasure.
when we got our new bunny she wanted to name it something to do with treasure.
i suggested we look in the thesaurus. treasure:prized possession,
abundance, cache, cash, cherish, darling, fortune, money, jewel,
pride and joy, riches, treasure trove, value.


we kind of like cherish but we decide to look up other words.
treasure = riches, fortune, treasure trove.
after some conversation we look up gold: dark yellow, aurous, blonde,
caramel, flaxen, honeyed, straw, tan, tawny, wheat.


so abbey says i really like tawny. with her golden circles around the eyes and
a small line at her back...it fits....so tawny it is....to remind us of treasure who has gone on.

our tawny. ~photo by abbey~
