I am Rabbit.

My family agrees...I am Rabbit.

I don't think I want to be Rabbit. He walks around naked. And he's bossy. He is always yelling at (okay, correcting) Tigger, who is Mr. Popularity in the Hundred-Acre Wood. Constantly correcting doesn't make you very popular. So who would want to be Rabbit?

But Rabbit has an awesome garden (like I want). And his house is always in order (again, like I want). He might be a control freak, but at least he has order instead of chaos. I mean, where does Pooh go when he runs out of honey? Rabbit's house! Because Rabbit is on top of that stuff. He wouldn't let himself run out of anything as important as honey. And, really, even though Rabbit is a little tense, a little hyper-organized, maybe a little controlling, he is loved by all. He's a good neighbor, a true friend, and he can definitely be trusted. So what if he doesn't wear clothes? I think I could be Rabbit just fine.

"It was going to be one of Rabbit's busy days. As soon as he woke up he felt important, as if everything depended upon him. It was just the day for Organizing Something, or for Writing a Notice Signed Rabbit, or for Seeing What Everybody Else Thought About It...It was a Captainish sort of day, when everybody said, "Yes, Rabbit" and "No, Rabbit," and waited until he had told them." (A.A. Milne)

Yep, I'm Rabbit.

There is nothing wrong with rabbit at all. I really enjoy reading your blogg even if I do not comment on each one.

Rabbit is resourceful too. However, you are far too encouraging of others to wear the (ahem) naked rabbit suit exclusively. You are certainly Poohish when spreading your cheer. A bit Tiggerish when rejoicing with someone. Over all, I find you to be a calm voice of thoughfulness and reason. A bit like Christopher Robin. And he has that stylish umbrella too. kellicrowe

Remember when Rabbit found the baby bird? Cassie was her name. Well he gave her a home and took good care of her. That is a person of noble character, and who wouldn't love and admire that.
