 
Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lucy. She was three years old, and every day she looked forward to going on an adventure. 
One morning, Lucy woke up with a plan. She wanted to go kayaking! She shouted with joy and raced to the lake, grabbing her kayak along the way. 
She paddled around the lake with enthusiasm, feeling the wind on her face and watching the birds fly around her. She felt so grateful and free! 
Suddenly, a friendly duck appeared, quacking at her. Lucy laughed and gave the duck a friendly pat. The duck seemed to enjoy it and decided to follow along with Lucy and her kayak. 
They paddled around together, and Lucy laughed the whole time. Even when she got tired, the duck's quacks made her smile. When the sun started to set, Lucy was able to return home with a grateful heart and a wonderful adventure.
