Midge and Booker-T walked along the sidewalk on their way to Jake's house. As they past his neighbor's house, they stopped to look at the decorations in the back yard.
“Lets go see,” suggested Midge.
They crossed the street and looked into the back yard.
“Wow,” said Booker-T. “Maybe its a birthday party for a little human.”
“Have you ever had a birthday party?” asked Midge.
“No,” said Booker-T. “Have you ever had one?”
Midge ran to the kitchen as her owner got her bowl and filled it with food and gave her fresh water in the other bowl before getting ready to go to work. Midge crawled through the doggie door into the back yard to take care of her doggie business and then hurried back inside to eat her breakfast. She was finishing up when Booker-T crawled through the door into the kitchen.
“Hi Midge,” greeted Booker-T. “What are you doing?”
“I just finished eating breakfast,” replied Midge. “Did you eat your breakfast already?”
“Yes,” smiled Booker-T. “Looks like your owner has been raking leaves out there in the yard.”
Lucy, with Jake, Midge and Booker-T, walked around the farm introducing Midnight to the other farm animals. She took him to meet the two horses, the bull and the rest of the cows at the barn yard. Near the house was a large pen with 20 chickens.
“You have a lot of friends here and they are all very big except for the chickens,” said Midnight. “I will have lot of fun here.”
After meeting all the animals on the farm, they all started running around the farm and laughing and chasing each other. As they ran through the pasture, Midnight looked at Lucy and thanked her for being a good friend. Suddenly, Midnight did a flip and landed in the pond of water in the middle of the pasture.
Midge sat on the front porch waiting for Booker-T. She sat looking around the yard at the flower plants that her owner had planted. She got up and walked to the two rose bushes she had planted near the porch. She stood staring at the bush. Booker-T came through the front gate.
“What are you looking for, Midge?” asked Booker-T as he walked to the porch.
“I think spring is here now,” smiled Midge.
“How do you know?” asked Booker-T.
“I see some new leaves on my owner's rose bush,” said Midge. “Does that mean we will have warmer weather now?”
Jake, Lucy and Booker-T ran around to the back yard at Midge's house. One by one, they crawled through the doggie door and crossed the kitchen floor into the living room. They found Midge walking around the room looking at the floor and in her mouth was something that looked like a magnifying glass.
“Hey Midge!” said Jake. “What are you doing?”
“I'm looking for clues,” said Midge.
“Clues for what?” asked Booker-T. “Did you loose something?”
“I'm Midge, the super detective,” smiled Midge.
