#545 inside understanding

One of my colleagues told the story of her young nephew who had a pet bunny.  The bunny roamed freely on an enclosed porch when the family was home, but had to be put in a hutch when they were out.

One day the child was trying to put the bunny inside, but the animal was not cooperating.  "Get your a$$ in there!" he said to the rabbit.  His mother overheard him and said, "WHAT did you say?"

"Come here little bunny," he replied.

This phrase has become shorthand in the family for "get moving!" and is part of the lexicon that each member knows well.  

May you give thanks to those who know your insider language and who laugh beside you.  I hope today you create new memories together.

Happy Thanksgiving!
