My name is Baby Deer, and recently, since it was so mild in December, I guess I got a little bit confused and more than a little excited thinking spring had arrived early. Oh yeah! I guess you can blame it on being very young.

I thought I would venture out into the wild-blue yonder and on down to the nearest lake to see what I could find. None of my friends were around, but that didn’t hold me back, no sirree, Bob! There was not much snow on the ground, and it was extremely mild for most of December. Still, I noticed that the lake had frozen over, this being the third week of January now.

Can you believe it? I actually saw people wearing shorts. That’s just plain weird! I couldn’t contain myself any longer, and I didn’t bother telling my family or my friends of my intentions. I just felt like kicking and shaking my legs for a nice long walk, so off I went. Yeah, baby, bring it on!
