The Baby and the Bunny

Terri Dill

The Baby and the Bunny was based on a real experience. After one of the Christmas dramas at the church, Terri went to the manger to put it away for yet another year. The baby Jesus doll was always swaddled and kept with the manger for safekeeping. As she went to pick it up, she saw that someone had swaddled a small stuffed little bunny with the doll. For a long time, she lingered over what she saw. Did a child do that? Did one of the adult actors put the sweet pair together? Either way, someone did not want the baby Jesus to be alone. For ten years, they were always together, no matter what the play. They will always be together and a very special part of every Christmas. For this is what Christmas is about-it is about love.
