“In a little apartment in Toronto, there lived a girl named Elira. Every night, when the moon shone bright over the city, she would cuddle in her blanket and share her" Sometimes, Elira felt big feelings—like sadness that seemed to float around her like a cloud, even when she didn’t know why.” “One night, a cheerful sparrow named Sammy flew to her window. ‘Elira,’ he chirped, ‘your heart is like a garden. You can choose which thoughts to plant!’” “Elira thought about this. ‘What if I plant thoughts of gratitude and joy?’ she wondered. ‘What would happen then?’” So, she began to think of all the things she was grateful for: her loving family, her friends, her cozy home, and the adventures they had in the city.” “With each thought, her heart glowed brighter and brighter. Soon, her sadness started to lift like a gentle breeze.” “‘I feel happy!’ Elira exclaimed. ‘I can choose how I feel!’” “Sammy chirped happily. ‘That’s right! Your thoughts are the seeds, and your heart is the garden. Plant joy, and watch it grow!’” “From that night on, whenever Elira felt sad, she remembered to think of her blessings and let her heart bloom with joy.” “And every night, under the watchful moon, Elira learned to dance with her feelings, knowing she could always choose the ones that made her heart shine.”

Don’t you want to go swimming with me?”. Fran looked a little sad and said “I want to go swimming but I don’t know how. I am afraid.” Jim tells Fran, “don’t be afraid, I have something that can help you to learn how to swim. Come with me.” Jim then runs towards his parents and shouts to his mother, “mommy, can you please give me the arm floats?”. Jim’s mother took out the arm floats from her beach bag, and gave them to Jim. Jim gave one to Fran and said “here, blow that float up and I will blow this one up”. Fran and Jim each blew up one arm float. Then Jim said “Now slide these up your arms. I will help you. They will help you to float in the water.” After the floats were on her little upper arms, she held out her arms and started to walk towards the water with Jim. Jim went into the water up to his knees first. Jim then turned and reached out his hand to Fran and said “come in the water with me”. Fran held his hand and walked into the water with him. As Fran went further into the water, she then exclaimed to Jim “I can’t feel the bottom with my feet anymore!”. Jim then laughed and said, “that’s because you are floating”. Then Fran realized that the arm floats were helping her to float. She then laughed and shouted to her parents saying “Mommy, Daddy, I am floating!”. Her parents waved to her smiling and Jim’s parents were also smiling. Fran and Jim then had fun laughing and playing in the water together, while both of their parents looked on, smiling.
