Let them be Little

Sleep Tight, Little Bunny I have a confession to make. Twenty years ago, I was reading our favorite book, Goodnight Moon to my first grandchild, Isabel. Easter was just around the corner and we began talking about the Easter Bunny.

On this given day, John, my cousin Eddie Jean Watson and I were swinging on the bottom wire when John pulled the top wire together with the bottom one and immediately began shaking and making an unutterable sound. The high electric voltage held him froze to the wires.as he shook erratically as he tried to loose himself. When I grabbed him around the waist, the high voltage literally slammed me down backwards on the tin roof. Quickly jumping back up, I grabbed John again and was shocked down.
