Billy Bear got up from the bed in the morning. Suddenly he remembered, “It is Mother’s birthday today. I will have to do something special for her.” Mother had gone out for some chore, so Billy walked into the kitchen. He decided to bake a cake for Mother. But making the cake turned out to be a messy affair. Before long, there were egg shells on the floor and cake mixture all over the walls! The icing was so soft that when Ted put the candles on the cake, they wouldn’t stand up straight. Billy quickly cleaned up all the mess. He did not wish to let his mother see the mess. Just as he was lighting the candles, Mother came inside. She was happy to see the cake and surprised as well. It turned out to be a great day after all and Billy’s efforts were not wasted!
