A Trip to the Hill

This morning, Jim and his little sister, Liz, went on a trip to the hill.
They filled a big picnic bag with chips, sandwiches, and milk.
The wind was chilly, but the kids didn’t mind.

When they finished, they sat still and listened to the birds.
It was a simple, happy day with lots of smiles and sunshine.
