For Zachary. With much love to a a very special little boy.

“I’m on the way to school today

Just lonely little me.

Only one is not much fun

I’m sad as sad can be.”

Two cows in a field heard the song. They felt sorry for Grace and said,

“Our field is very boring

There isn’t much to do

We think school sounds so much fun

Can we come with you?”

Grace said “Of course!”

So Grace opened the gate and the cows followed her down the road. Grace sang a new song:

“On our way to school today, come and follow me

On our way to school today, I wonder what we’ll see.”
