The Baseball Game

 

Midge and Booker-T walked along the sidewalk going to Jake's house. As they turned the corner, they saw a group of human boys walking in the street. They each had blue shirts and each had a different number on them.

"What are they doing?" asked Booker-T.

"I think they are the boys who are going to play baseball at the new field," said Midge. "Lets hurry to Jake's house."

They ran the rest of the way to Jake's house. When they entered his yard, they found him napping on the porch swing. Midge took her foot and pushed the swing.

"Hey Jake!" called Midge. "Wake up now!"

"I'm awake," said Jake as he sat up in the swing.

"Nope," laughed Booker-T. "You were asleep."

The Backyard Party

 

Midge stood watching her owner cooking food in the kitchen and setting up glasses and plates on the table. She made some kind of patties that she covered and put into the refrigerator but she didn't cook them. Back and forth across the kitchen floor she went cooking some things, washing some of the dishes. She looked me Midge and smiled.

"Good morning girl," said her owner. "I know you don't know what is going on. But that's okay Midge."

"I know there is going to be a party," thought Midge staring at her owner. "I want to eat and dance."

"You will have to stay out from under everyone's feet this afternoon," said Midge's owner. "I know you will be good Midge."

"Maybe Booker-T was right," thought Midge. "She don't want me there."

It's Party Time

 

Booker-T walked into the front yard at Midge's house and found Midge dancing around singing.

"It's party time," sang Midge. "Oh yes, the part time is almost here."

"Hey Midge," said Booker-T. "What are you doing?"

"I'm happy, happy, happy," smiled Midge. "What are you doing?"

New Friends at the Park

 

Midge was sitting on the front porch watching the little humans walking along the sidewalk on their way to school. Booker-T walked through the gate and sat down on the porch with her.

"What are you doing?" asked Booker-T.

"I was watching all the little humans walking to school," said Midge. "I think this is the last week of school and they will be out running around and playing."

"I think they are excited for summer to come," said Booker-T.
