Snow Day Activity
Watching this video and thinking about what I have let go of in the past got me thinking. In 8th grade, I got a cute little bunny who I named Cleo. She was cute and fluffy and I took her on walks on a bunny leash. Then the summer between my sophomore and junior year in high school, I got a puppy for my 16th birthday. My puppy consumed so much of my time because he needed constant attention and care. Because of that, my rabbit wasn't getting the attention she needed. I tried having Beau (my puppy) and Cleo get along, but he would always want to play rough with her and that wasn't good for the bunny. I knew what I had to do, even though I was so upset about it. I had to let go of Cleo. There was a doctor at my mom's work who was interested in taking the bunny for his kids. We gave her to that family and I haven't seen her since. I knew the children would give her more love and attention than I could, and there would be no other doggies there to bother her. Just last week, my mom sent me a picture of Cleo that the recent owner took and sent to her. I teared up because I hadn't heard anything about her or seen her in so long. I still don't regret letting go, because she seemed really happy. I know what I did was best for her and me and my puppy.
