I Don't UnderStand This At all....(SOLVED)

On Challenge Task 3 of 3 It is asking me to do something Which I don't understand.

Do I need to add a String Variable? Or just put buttonLabel And a "=" Sigh

Can somebody help?

And here's my Code :

CodeChallenge.java 
Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
String buttonLabel = getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText("LOAD");
strings.xml 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
  <string name="morePuppies">See More Puppies</string>
</resources>

So, so close. You just need to replace "LOAD" with the variable buttonLabel:

Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
String buttonLabel = getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText(buttonLabel);
