"Oh, go and look and see if it has!" cried her brother. "That would be too bad, wouldn't it, to have the snow stop after Mart had made such a fine sled?"
But a look out the window of the barn showed the white flakes still swirling down, and Bunny and Sue laughed and clapped their hands in delight as Mart brought the pony from his stall.
Everything was just right. The pony backed in between the shafts, and soon drew the new sled outside where the newly fallen snow let it slip easily along.
"It will look nicer when it's painted," said Mart.
"I think it's nice now!" said Bunny.
"Terrible nice!" agreed Sue.
"Well, get in, and we'll have a ride," suggested Lucile. "Can you drive, Bunny?"
"Oh, yes!" was the answer; and Bunny soon showed that he could by taking the reins and guiding the pony around to the front of the house.
"Come on out, Mother, and see what we have!" cried Sue, as Bunny stopped the little horse.
"Oh, isn't that just fine!" laughed Mrs. Brown, as she came to the door. "What a nice surprise for you children! Did you thank Mart and Lucile for making it?"
