The Choch sisters would meet each other everyday. Freya and Breeze would also come over and have lots of fun. All the babies invited Breeze with open arms.
On the weekends, Harlin would join his wife and sister in-law for TV or a stroll around the house. Sometimes he would go play with all the children. Breeze had a warm bubble bath with her cousin, Honey. Karen was too busy staring at the beautiful sunset and she gave them the wrong clothes. Honey wore Breeze’s frock and vice versa.
Once they were done, Hopper convinced Honey and Breeze to sneak some donuts from the kitchen. “Let’s go!” cheered Hopper.
All the babies had been learning some short, useful phrases. Such as, hello, good morning/night/evening, thank you, please etc. They quietly crept to the kitchen, being led by the strong scent of donuts made by Veronica Toy Poodle (the town baker and Toy Poodle mother). “That sounds amazing!” said Heidi.
The adults were coming back. Hopper and Honey spotted the donuts on top of the stove. There was also the pot of flour on top of the stove. Hopper stepped to the side of the kitchen, ready to hop up and tip the donuts over. True to his name, Hopper jumped extremely high for a 1 year old. He jumped knocking the donuts AND the flour over. He crawled away, but Honey and Breeze had just sat there watching.
The chocolate on the donut had smeared Honey’s ears making her look like Breeze, since she was wearing her flock and the flour covered the “chocolate” parts of Breeze's ears, making her look like Honey.
The adults had all heard the loud noises and raced to the kitchen. A few seconds later all the children had stormed down too. "What's wrong?" Bell exclaimed, removing the donut from Breeze’s (Honey's) head.
"What are the babies doing in the kitchen?" questioned David.
Harlin asked, "Is everyone alright? Let's take a look at these three."
Harlin picked up Honey (Breeze) and put the empty flour pot away, Teri picked up Breeze (Honey) and Heidi picked up Hopper. Hopper unharmed had been giggling. Breeze and Honey were fine, and wanted to go play. Heidi laughed, "They wanted the donuts, look," she said pointing to some of the dropped donuts.
Hopper was the only baby who knew what happened, but since he was so small he didn't know he should say something. Soon, Teri, Freya and Breeze had to go back home. Heidi gave Teri a loaf of pound cake and Teri promised she would call Heidi when she was home. As Teri picked up Honey, who looked like Breeze, Hopper shouted, "Honey, don't go!"
Karen tells Hopper that Honey is right here, but he continues shouting, “No, that’s Honey. She’s Honey!”
Honey is also reaching for Hopper and is making a fuss. The real Breeze tries following her mother and sister, but she can't keep up. Honey is brought to the Lakeside Lodge and she keeps whining. To calm her down Freya gives her a sundae, which keeps Honey occupied. Honey eats quickly, which confuses Freya, she tells Breeze, "Remember your manners!"
Honey looks up and answers, "I am Honey Hopscotch."
"Silly rabbit, you're Breeze Chocolate," Freya claims.
Honey continues eating her sundae, while Freya sits down to study. Back at the Deluxe Village House, all the babies were let outside to play. Breeze remembering her manners didn't step foot on the ground. David, who was watching the babies, asked, "Honey, are you okay?"
Breeze replies, "Yes, I am fine, I just don't want to dirty myself."
"You always loved playing outside though," replied David.
After they were brought in, Heidi would teach them their ABC's and some phrases. Using the ABC book, Teri had given the twins on their birthday, Olive read, "A is for Apple, B is for Butterfly."
Then it was Honey’s (Breeze's) turn, she read 'Butterfly and Field Mustard' perfectly and didn't even need to sound out any word. Before Breeze came to Cloverleaf Corners she attended nursery school and learned many news things. Heidi was shocked at her "daughter's" performance. Heidi never taught any of the babies these words yet and wanted this to be a new book they could work on.
"Are you alright, Honey dear?" asked Heidi.
Breeze answered, "I'm not Honey, I am Breeze. I feel perfectly fine."
Heidi touched Honey’s (Breeze's) forehead, it wasn't burning up or too cold, but nonetheless Heidi brought her to bed. Breeze said, "I'm alright, I don't need a nap."
At night time, when everyone went to bed, but, Honey (who was still at the Lakeside Lodge) was incredibly nervous and kept whining and crying. She missed her family and friends and had no idea what was happening. If Honey could get an explanation she would've calmed down. Teri tried calming her down with a glass of water, but it didn't help. After Honey got tired she fell asleep on the floor. As she slept Teri wondered what happened to her always perfect Breeze. She decided to phone Heidi. "Hello," answered Heid.
"Hello, sis. This is Teri," answered Teri, "Breeze has been acting strange lately, she keeps crying for Hopper."
Heidi gasped, “Oh my gosh! Honey hasn’t been herself lately either! She wouldn’t play outside!”
“Very strange,” Teri exclaimed, “Very strange indeed, I’ll come over tomorrow.”
“Got it, bye Teri!”
“Goodbye!”
The next afternoon, Harlin arrived home for lunch, there were biscuits, boiled flour (a rice like food), and steamed carrots. Teri came over 20 minutes later. She had brought Breeze’s piano, so they could hear the marvelous music. “Good afternoon, Teri,” greeted Harlin.
“Hello, hello,” greeted Teri, “Breeze, why don’t you play some music?”
The true Breeze rushed over to greet her mother and sister, but then slowly crawled for she remembered her manners. Honey had no experience playing the piano and played a strange tune that was like, “Ding, dang, boing, dinggggggggggg, dong, dong, dongggggg! Ding, dong, ding, boing boing BOING!”
Teri gave an incredulous look and said, “Breeze, what are you playing? Can you please play ‘Swans Flutter’”
Honey didn’t really understand, so she continued with randomly pressing the piano keys. The actual Breeze finally made it to the living room and told Honey, “Step aside, please. It’s my turn.”
Honey scooted over and Breeze played a lovely tune. Everyone was getting confused, “Wait, so Honey can play the piano now?” asked Skip.
“Skippy, can I have a bubble bath?” asked Honey and Breeze in unison.
Skip turned to Harlin and he nodded, he said, “Uh okay, sure.”
As the water and bubbles rinsed away the chocolate from Honey’s ears and the flour from Breeze’s Skip finally understood what was happening. He dries them and hastily brings them down. After he explains, everyone sits there dumb-struck. “Wow, all this time we couldn’t tell them apart,” mutters Bell.
Hopper joins in and says, “I tried to tell you.”
The family breaks out laughing and everyone appreciates Honey and Breeze more.
