Wednesday, May 21, 2009 Papa’s Farm When I Walked into the barn Papa yelled, “Hurry up Jake! You’re going to miss it. (I was so excited!)’’ I ran to the back of the barn, jumping over bails of straw and dodging stray kittens. When I found Papa he was in the big pen with a cow. Papa was smiling and said, Jake,” You’re just in time to help me. Were going to have a new calf soon’’. I think my eyes got as big as baseballs. My heart was racing and I could hardly talk. After only a few minutes Papa yelled. “Here it comes! Just like that the baby calf was laying in the straw. Right after she was born, her mom cleaned here off and Papa and I helped her stand. We also helped hold her so she could learn to eat. I’ll name her Bubble Gum. Bubble Gum is three years old now and she is having a baby of her own soon. I think I’ll name it, Hubba Bubba.
