“Do you children know your way home alone?” asked Miss Wilson, as she let Bunny and Sue out of the hospital.
“Yes, thank you,” answered Bunny.
“Shall we come to-morrow and bring Mr. Pott some more apples and more flowers?” asked Sue.
“Oh, no, I think not, dear,” the nurse answered. “You brought him enough apples to last a week. Though the day after to-morrow, if you wish, you may bring more flowers. I think he will like them.”
“We’ll bring two baskets full,” offered Bunny, swinging in his hand the wood basket, which had been emptied and given back to him.
“Oh, one basket will be plenty,” said the nurse, laughing. “Good-by!”
“Good-by,” echoed Sue.
“We’ll come back day after to-morrow,” promised Bunny.
But that was not to be, for when that day came Bunny and his sister had started on their trip to the rolling ocean.
“Where in the world have you children been?” asked Mrs. Brown a little later, when Bunny and Sue walked in the front gate.
