Tell Me Something Happy Before I Go to Sleep

When Willa can't sleep because she is so afraid of bad dreams, her brother leans down from the top bunk to encourage his little sister to think happy thoughts... about her chicken slippers, her blue-and-white jumpsuit, and tomorrow's anticipated pleasures.
He tells her that the morning is waiting "For grass to grow, flowers to bloom, and leaves to flutter. For clouds to float, wind to blow, and sun to shine. For birds to fly, bees to buzz, and ducks to quack." "'That's a lot of happy things,' said Willa."

Morning

Waking up this morning, I smile.
Twenty-four brand new hours are before me.
I vow to live fully in each moment and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion.

As far as I'm concerned, the entire reason for becoming
a writer is not having to get up in the morning.

If I had any choice in the matter,
I'd stay in my comfy bed and eat warm chocolate chip cookies all day.
