The world was rough for Rosie. The front porch she called home was noisy and cold, and other cats, lean and quick, fought for scraps and dry spots. Rosie tried to keep up, but her small body was too weak, her ribs too sharp beneath her matted fur. She wheezed with every breath, her thin tail covered in dirt, and the ache inside her made moving feel impossible. Next door was a house Rosie often found herself near when the pain got too bad. Light spilled from its windows, and inside, a man and woman moved together, their faces kind but lined with sadness. Something about the house felt safe. One evening, Rosie collapsed near their yard, her body trembling, too tired to move. The man stepped outside, crouching near her with a plate of food. Rosie dragged herself forward, eating for the first time in days, her body shaking with the effort. “Poor thing,” the woman said softly, reaching out her hand but not touching Rosie right away. Her fingers smelled warm and gentle, not like the world Rosie knew.he next morning, the couple wrapped her in a soft towel. After a failed bath—Rosie’s terrified scratches proving her fear—the man carried her to the rescue vet. Humans poked and prodded, but their hands were kind. Medicine tasted bitter, but it brought relief. Back at the house, Rosie was given a warm crate, soft food, and quiet care. Over the weeks, Rosie began to heal. Her breathing eased, and her strength returned. The woman sang softly to her, and the man would talk about how they’d needed something to care for. Rosie didn’t understand their words, but she felt their love. In return, she showed them her gratitude—purring on their laps, curling at their feet, and bringing laughter to their quiet home.The man spoiled her with toys, and though the woman teased him, she soon did the same. For the first time,Rosie wasn’t just surviving—she was living. Nestled between them on the couch oneevening, Rosie purred softly, knowing she had finally found her place: her fur-ever home

The second sister, Bean Girl, was thin and quick. But Bean Girl was not very strong. She couldn’t stand up. She was good at making food, but she was always dirty and wet because she had to lie on the ground. The third sister, Squash Girl, was short and wide. She wore a yellow dress. She was hungry, too. For a long time, the sisters didn’t get along. They each wanted to be independent and free. So Corn Girl stood there with her sunburned feet and got hungrier and hungrier. And Bean Girl lay there on the ground and got dirtier and wetter. And the little short sister, Squash Girl, was hungry, too. One day Bean Girl asked Corn Girl, “What if I feed you some good food, and you can hold me up so I don’t have to lie on the ground?” Then little Squash Girl called up to her tall sister, “What if I lie on your feet and shade them so you won’t get sunburned?” So the Three Sisters learned to work together, so that everyone would be healthier and happier. Corn Girl helped Bean Girl stand up. Bean Girl fed Corn Girl and Squash Girl good food. And Squash Girl shaded Corn Girl’s feet and kept the weeds from growing up around them.

Mrs. Green returned from the grocery store with her arms full of bags, but when she reached her front door, she realized her house key was missing. She searched her pockets, purse, and shopping bags, but the key was nowhere to be found. As she started to panic, her young neighbor Emma, an eight-year-old with a cheerful smile, noticed her distress and asked what was wrong. Mrs. Green explained her problem, and Emma, always quick with ideas, suggested checking the sidewalk in case the key had fallen out during the walk home. When Mrs. Green said she had already looked everywhere, Emma had another suggestion. She offered to pray with Mrs. Green to ask for help in finding the key, explaining that prayer was powerful and that God was always listening. Though not accustomed to praying, Mrs. Green agreed, touched by Emma’s confidence. They sat together on the steps, and Emma led a simple, heartfelt prayer, asking God to help them find the lost key. Mrs. Green felt a sense of comfort and hope after the prayer, even though she wasn’t sure what to expect. Afterward, the two of them retraced Mrs. Green’s steps, searching once again in the areas they had already checked. Just as Mrs. Green was about to lose hope, Emma called out from near the bushes by the front steps. There, hidden in the leaves, was the missing key. Mrs. Green was overjoyed and couldn’t believe it. She hugged Emma and thanked her, feeling grateful not only for finding the key but also for the reminder of the power of prayer. Emma simply smiled and said she believed God had helped them. From that moment on, Mrs. Green never forgot the lesson Emma had taught her. Whenever she encountered a problem, whether big or small, she remembered to turn to prayer for guidance, just like Emma had shown her. And remarkably, things always seemed to work out in the end.
