“Hey Midge!” called
Jake from the street as he turned into the yard. “Where are you?”
“I’m laying down up
here on the porch,” said Midge. “What
are you doing this morning?”
“Why are you lying
down?” asked Jake.
“Because I want to,”
said Midge. “Am I not supposed to lay
down?”
“Sure,” said
Jake. “Laying down is good, but we are
supposed to meet Booker-T and Susie at the park. Did you forget?”
