I know this chapter is a little short. I'm sorry, I'll try to make up for it with a longer chapter next update.
Benjamin Cartwright opened the door of the barn and he walked inside, "Jenny?" he called as he looked for his youngest. He had been calling for her for a few minutes now to let her know that it was time for supper but his youngest wasn't to be found.
He chuckled softly to himself when he spied his youngest sitting in an empty stall with her back to him, softly talking to something. "What do you got there honey?" Benjamin asked as he knelt down beside the girl.
Jennifer looked up at her pa as she gently moved her hands for him to see the tiny black and white pup that was in her lap. "I found it in the woods, can I keep it pa?"
Benjamin looked the pup over and it seemed healthy enough and he smiled as he handed it back to his daughter, "What will you name him?"
At this Jenny squealed with delight as she smiled, "I think, that I shall name him, Jack." she said seriously as she looked down at her new pat.
Benjamin nodded, "Jack is a fine name Jenny. Now why don't we head inside and get both you and Jack some supper?" he said as he stood.
Jennifer nodded as she stood up, "That sounds good." she said and she followed Ben out of the barn and up to the house to show off her new pet, and to get some supper.
