"... I am sending you two
photographs that I recently discovered among my archives. I'm guessing that Forrest is around four and I'm five. The girl between us is his sister, Kathleen. So, I'm dating this around 1949. "Forrest used to live beside me on Hampton Avenue. I don't have a clue as to when his family moved to Roanoke Avenue. My first thought was to send them to Forrest, but decided it would be more fun for him to find them on your web site." |

Peter Cottontail
Written by Beatrix Potter
Here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity, hoppity,
Easter's on its way.
Bringin' every girl and boy Baskets full of Easter joy,
Things to make your Easter bright and gay.
He's got jelly beans for Tommy,
Colored eggs for sister Sue,
There's an orchid for your Mommy
And an Easter bonnet, too.
Oh! here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Happy Easter day.
Here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Look at him stop,
and listen to him say:
"Try to do the things you should."
Maybe if you're extra good,
He'll roll lots of Easter eggs your way.
You'll wake up on Easter morning
And you'll know that he was there
When you find those choc'late bunnies
That he's hiding ev'rywhere.
Oh! here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Happy Easter day.
