Bouncy Castle Excerpt:

It was late morning on a pleasant spring day on Ahway Island. Inside a dark truck, Bobo the bouncy house waited patiently, feeling the gentle sway of the vehicle as it moved along the winding streets. Bobo was all flat right now, but he didn’t mind. He knew that whenever the party store packed him into the truck, it meant he was going to an event or party to provide lots of fun!

Bobo felt the truck slow down and come to a stop. He could hear voices outside, and soon the truck’s bed opened. Bright sunlight streamed in, and Bobo felt a thrill of excitement. The worker from the party store began pulling Bobo out onto the fresh grass and securing him to the ground.

Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine sunlight warming you as you lie in a grassy meadow.
Creating the original bedtime stories and art for Be Calm on Ahway Island takes a lot of time and care.
