The finish product:

The Easter Bunny

If you know my child, you know he does not do larger than life animals, characters, etc. However, yesterday as we walked by the Easter Bunny in the mall he took a mental note of it. Then upon bedtime, he decided that he needed to go see that rabbit we saw earlier in the day and that he was not going to be scared to sit in his lap. All day he talked of this rabbit so we took him back to the mall. He continued to tell himself he was not going to be scared. Here's how it went . . .
