Tonight is Daniel's sleepover birthday party. About an hour before the guests were to arrive, Mike went down to change Bumper's cage litter and discovered he'd passed. We dug a hole in the yard and buried him and when we asked if the kids wanted to say anything, Jacob said, "come on guys, he's a pet. They die. Can I go in now?" Hannah just kept saying, "he was a good bunny." Indeed, he was. A very good bunny and a very good pet.
We'll miss you, Bumper. Hop along little guy.
