Tahira opened her sleepy eyes and looked out the window at the foggy field below. “NO!” she cried, now fully awake. Maya the cow was in Mama’s daisy patch.

Tahira hurried outside and grabbed the lead rope hanging on the porch. “Why can’t you stay in the field?” she called to Maya as she headed across the yard to the daisy patch.
Maya stood nipping tender flowers off their stems.
When I grow up, I’ll be an artist and paint pictures all day, Tahira thought. I’ll never own a cow. Too much trouble.
