I have fun on the Happy Farm today. I pick and eat some apples there. I also learn how to plant tomatoes. The farmers on the farm are friendly. I want to ride a horse, but it's difficult for me. With the help of the farmers, I can do it now. It's not boring at all! There are lots of animals on the farm - chickens, pigs, ducks, and other animals. I like chickens best. How cute they are!
