Over at the Robin Siegismund Farm, Belle is upset. Belle was happy when Thursday the calf was born and she had a playmate; but now Thursday has lots of friends besides Belle. Thursday and friends decided to play “chase the wolf” with Belle being the wolf. The game was fun for a while but Thursdays bunch didn’t get tired so Belle crawled under the fence to get away. Belle knew they were laughing, but she will just find some new friends. Robin and Mabel are happy to gather the eggs and enjoy the little people.
