Oh, the darlings! Debby exclaimed, close behind.

Girls! Let's gather as many as we can find, and send a box of them to Blue Bonnet. Remember how she raved over them last year? She said they were almost as lovely as the blue bonnets that bloom in Texas about this time.

Seems to me they're awfully early this year, Amanda said, searching under the mahogany colored leaves for the little furred heads.

I never knew them to come before April.

Oh, you forget from year to year, Amanda, Kitty reminded.

Anyway, it's almost April. A week from to-day is the first. That's the day Blue Bonnet gets here. And, by the way, I have a letter from Blue Bonnet. It came just as I was leaving the house and I waited until we were all together to read it. Suppose we go up on the hill a little farther and get in a patch of sunshine. It's a trifle chilly in the shade, even if Mr. Phœbe does keep insisting that 'Spring's come!'
human
Humph! Short and sweet, Kitty commented, as she drew forth the letter.

Suppose it is because she will be with us so soon.
