Hi and welcome back to Coco's Sleep, a podcast of original children's bedtime stories

and meditations designed to make bedtime a dream.

Tonight's drumroll, high fives and supercharged smiles are going out to our newest Coco

clubbers. That's Bruce, Jade, Soren Wilder, Gabby, Remi, Isabel, Audrey, Owen, Maya and

Sahara, Darwin and Artemis, Noah and Willow. Thank you all so much for joining Coco and

I here in the clubhouse. It's getting quite cozy in here now. And also thank you for

writing in with all your story ideas. Every day we open up your messages and we love

hearing about you, your pets, your friends and just having a glimpse into your imaginations.

In fact, you may recall that I started doing these shout outs on the story about Thanksgiving

because I felt it was important to acknowledge aloud the things I and the team here at Sleep

HQ are grateful for. And that's you. Well, tonight we're returning to our young but

wise, eagle-friend Ember as she tells Coco all about another tradition from her homeland.

In tonight's story, Coco joins Ember and her family for their 4th of July celebrations.

It's going to be a good one and I know many of you are looking forward to another Coco's

story. Before we begin, a quick message for the grown-ups. If you'd like to support
