Summary
Bella was 5 years old today! Not only was she excited that it was her birthday, she was looking forward to starting school soon. "Happy Birthday Bella Boo!" shouted mom. Here is a new pink unicorn backpack for you my special girl. Bella squealed with excitement as she hugged her mom. She loved her new backpack and couldn't wait to take it to school and show her friends. She was so excited about it that she ended up playing with it at home and pretended to go on adventures carrying her backpack with her trusty sidekick Bear. Bella and her mom visited a homeless shelter later that day as it was tradition every year on her birthday. Her dad loved helping people and volunteering at the shelter. After he passed away, they tried to honor his memory on all their birthdays by handing out duffel bags filled goodies. Bella saw a Young mom and daughter. The mom was very grateful for the duffel bag. Hazel, her young daughter, was very shy and hid behind her mom and held tightly to her coat. Her face looked sad. Bella,asked what can you do to make Hazel smile? That's when she remembered Hazel's old backpack. There were holes in the backpack. Could Bella give Hazel the pink unicorn backpack she got for her birthday? Bella can use last year's backpack. No need for a new one. It's not ripped, just a little old. Bella pitched her mom the idea. That's a great idea! Your dad would be so proud of you for helping her and giving her your new backpack. What else can we do? maybe fill it with fun things? Bella's mom suggested she fill the backpack with newer or lightly used items Hazel can use to learn, to make her happy when she is sad, to calm down when she is angry, to help her when she is scared. In order to deal with her many emotions, Hazel could use different types of things. Hazel can use the books and drawing toy Bella brought back from her room. Red panda she can hug at night when she's scared. Maracas she can play when she's happy or wants to sing and dance.
