Scientist Friends Excerpt:
“I really liked learning about science this week in class,” said Helen. “I liked how Mrs. Lee told us about the scientists who find new kinds of bugs and animals.”
“Yeah,” said Brianna. “That was really cool. I thought all the bugs in the world had already been found, but I guess there are still more new ones we don’t know about yet.”
“That’s what Mrs. Lee says,” chimed in Helen. “She says there’s always something new to learn about science.”
Today’s Meditation: Feel calm and relaxed as you send kind energy to your heart.
