Pigs

“One pig cake, please, perfectly pink,” said Pig.

“It will be there in two hours,” said Pig II.

Pig hung up the phone. Now the invitations! Pig put a pig sticker on all of the cards. Pig III’s address is 7182. Pig wrote 7182. Then after 7182 was Pig Street. Pig was so distracted she accidentally wrote Wolf Street on all of the cards. Pig looked at the table. Pig took the sack and closed his eyes and wiped off the table with his arm. He wasn’t looking and there were no table scraps and in the sack fell plates. He picked up the phone.

“One Mud ---,” said Pig. He hung up on Fish. He heard the doorbell. There was a green pig cake and a water aquarium at his door.

“No time to fix this. We have five minutes until Pig comes.”

Five minutes later wolves appeared at his door.

“The guests!” cried pig. He shooed the wolves out. He called his pig friends to come over. Two minutes later, the guests arrived, and three minutes later Pig came.

“I’m sorry!” said Pig, “It’s the thought that counts! And, I can see what’s wrong,” said Pig.
