One day, the three got together and talked about wanting to have their own houses and live by themselves instead of together with their mother. One of them was elected to break the news to their mom.

"Mom, we have decided that we are ready to move out into our own houses. We think we would be more comfortable living by ourselves." said the little pig to his mom with his chin up in the air.

"Really? Hmmmm." Said their mom. "Well I guess you boys are going to have to learn the hard way." That was all she said in reply.

The three gleeful pigs immediately began packing lest she change her mind and make them stay with her. When they had packed their clothes, toys, music CDs and pillows, they wanted to set out into the world to find a new home. However, it was nearly dinner time and they decided to allow their mother to make them dinner this one last time.

After eating and, well, making "pigs" out of themselves, they set off. They had already decided to look for homes on their own and so all three went in different directions. Their mother waved them goodbye with an odd little smile on her face.
