My puppy has no food in his tum tum. I do not want him to cry. So I play ”mommy” and feed him his ba-ba.

I see the blue gate is not closed. I make a run for it. I dash out of the two-year-old room and skid around the corner.
I squeal and laugh at my game.

It is a big hill. A tall hill. I stand at the top and look down.
There is white snow for as far as I can see. Nice, soft, white snow.
“Climb on,” Dad says.
