Summary
Liam wants to help his mom feel better when she comes home with a headache. Will his special concert cheer her up?
Narrator: Male
Story Begins: 3:46
The Feel Better Show Excerpt:
Liam looked up at his mom. “Your head hurts?” he asked.
She nodded. “A little, but I’ll be okay. I’m just looking forward to being somewhere quieter.”
Liam frowned. He didn’t like hearing that his mother didn’t feel good. He wished her head did not hurt, and, more than that, he wished he knew how to help. As they finished shopping, checked out, and drove home, Liam kept thinking about how he could help his mom feel better.
Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine you are a baby penguin snuggled close to its papa.
