Lily thought: “Mama is crazy, She’s nuts in her head. What can you do with just one loaf of bread?”As she walked down the street Lily thought, I get to share this whole loaf of bread.”

Lily continues down the street with ‘giving’ on her mind… when Belle the bulldog snatched a chunk from behind. Belle danced and she pranced…then dashed off all alone…Lily laughed and she thought: “She thinks it’s a bone!!!!!!”
