It was a beautiful day in Walnut Grove. Wanda and Annabella, Willie, Rachel, Albert, and Sylvia's daughters, were racing eachotherto the end of the road where they part their ways to their , Willie's daughter, looked exactly like her father. Annabella, Albert's daughter, looked exactly like her father as well.

The girls also acted like their fathers; Wanda being slightly clumsy and not a very good fighter, Annabella being fierce if she needed to be and confident.

As the girls reached the end of the path, Wanda shouted, "I won!" She and Annabella laughed.

"Okay, but I'll beat you tomorrow. I gotta go home."

"So do I. See ya tomorrow." With that the two girls parted ways.


When Wanda got home, as usual, she was greeted by her father.

"Hey, Wandy." That was Willie's nickname for her.

"Hi, Papa. If it's alright with you, mama, and Annabella's parents can she come over Friday?"

"It's alright with me."


Annabella jumped into her father's outstretched arms when she got home. It was rare that he was home when she got home from school.

"Hiya Annie Bell, what's up?"

"Hi Pa! What are you doing home so early?"

"Mr. Hanson let everyone go home since we all finished our work early. How was school?"

"Great. Pa, can I go over to Wanda's if it's alright with her parents, you, and Ma?"

"Sure."
