A Firecracker walked in proudly, jumped up on the Ironing Board and began to iron clothes as neatly as you please.
A cracked voice called,
“Ha, ha, ha, let’s work together,
Minding not the time nor weather.”
Little Stay-At-Home began to iron on the table, and the Firecracker ironed on the board. My! how fast the work went on.
Suddenly the little girl remembered she had one more wish so she said,
“To finish my work I always try,
But I’d like some fun on the Fourth of July.”
Then the third surprising thing happened.
