Princess

I always wanted a little baby pig named Freddy, but Mama and Papa didn’t want anything to do with it. “If you want a pig you’d better ask God for one,” said Mama. So one day we were at the auction and we usually go to the swap meet while they sell pigs. But this time we stayed through them. All these baby piglets were going through and suddenly Mama saw this little brown and white piglet. Mama said, “See who bought the piglets.” We went to the swap meet until the auction ended, and I was really scared that the man who bought the piglets wouldn’t be there later. But when we came back, the man was there. Praise God! I went up to him and asked if he bought that little piglet. He said, “No, my friend did.” I asked his friend about the little brown and white piglet, but he hadn’t seen it. He had to finish his business, then he would go get the piglets. He said I could pay him $10 for the piglet if he found it. (He hadn’t noticed the brown and white piglet amongst all the bigger pink ones.) So after all that happened, I finally got a baby piglet named Princess.
