"Grandy" for short. When I was growing up I was always and only my daddy's hunny bunny. In fact, I still am. Only my daddy can call me his hunny bunny. Because I am his hunny bunny, he must be - logic tells us - my dad rabbit. So when I had kids it only made sense to keep the hare in there. And because "granddaddy" is kind of a southern name for "grandpa" and because my daddy holds on to his southern roots (his family being from Kentucky, ya'll) and because HIS granddaddy was, well, Granddaddy, he wanted to be Granddaddy too. Thus, Granddaddy Rabbit. And -- he finally gets to capitalize it. I really love my dad. I'm so glad he came by and had supper with us this week and played with the kids. He's heading off to big and little Sturgis' soon so we hope he rides safe!
