I was busy doing barn chores and thought I heard voices,
but the only one within eyesight was the horse. “mmm,”
I thought. “Must be hearing voices from the valley down
below.”
ut the voices continued, and I went out to look around the
barnyard. nd there was one of my chickens chatting with
one of our newest farm members, our little donkey ucia.
“ow old are you, donkey?” the chicken asked.
“I’m one, and my name is ucia.”
I stood somewhat out of sight, thinking my presence
might stop the free ow of their chat.
ut they saw me, and I’m uite pleased to tell you they
invited me over.
“I suppose you already know this is ucia,” said the
chicken.
“Well, yes, I do,” I said. “I thought she would be a
wonderful addition to our barnyard family.”
oon other creatures appeared. ome I knew by name,
but some I had not ocially met, like the little chipmunk
who stood at his house door watching with curiosity. The
grasses all chimed in, “ello, ucia, nice to meet you.
lease don’t eat us.”
nd as I returned to the barn to finish chores, I saw the
chicken’s children rushing over to meet ucia.
“We really like your big ears!” the young chicks said.
