SHORTLY AFTER my husband and I settled in a rural part of Florida, a
neighboring farmer gave us a piglet. Thrilled, we named our new pet
Peggy and taught her several tricks. A few weeks later we asked the
farmer to take Peggy while we were on vacation. We left her happily
playing with the other piglets, but when we returned, we realized all
piglets look alike. We didn't think we'd be able to pick out Peggy. Then
my husband yelled, "Sit!" And one little pig sat down.
