As you must know by now, this is a family tradition started by my mom's dad. The first word out of your mouth on the first day of the month should be RABBIT. I have no idea why and neither does mom. I don't think any of her siblings do this either, but for some reason it stuck with us.
Since I got a text from mom at 9:30 this morning saying just that, I thought I'd pass it along. So here's to the first day of the new year!
PS--I read a few inspiring new years blogs yesterday. I'll try and figure out how to hyperlink to them and post this afternoon.

I was curious so, I googled it.
I know wikipedia isn't the most reliable source of information but, here is a link that gives some reasons of why people say rabbit on the first of the month. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_rabbit
There are other sites that give some of the same reasonings.
That is so interesting! Just passed it along to the fam. I'm sure Sooze will be glad to learn she's been participating in superstition all these years. Ha ha.
