Mama, Why do you Gaze at the Moon?

Mama tucked Olivia and Sofia in bed. She whispered softly, 'Close your eyes, my dears.' The girls wondered, 'Mama, why do you gaze at the moon?' 'Tonight, you'll see,' Mama said with a smile. The room began to glow with a magical light.

1

A sparkling door appeared by their bed. 'Step through, and we'll see where it leads,' Mama said. Olivia and Sofia held hands, feeling brave. They opened the door and took a step. Stars twinkled as they entered a new world.

"Oh, I was hoping you would ask me this question soon . Meet me tonight you’ll know what to do , deep in your Slumber under the moon."

3

The next night we waited, minds sparkling, eyes heavy. Magically, a door appeared, and we knew we were ready.

4

Where the door led, we knew not, or how far. Then appeared our mother, looking more like a star.

Mama Greeted us with a glowing smile. "My sweet celestials, I’m elated you found your way! the very first reason I adore the moon, like you say!"

She appears every night, to remind us to rest. while we dream, she gives us the time & tools, to work on all the ideas, in our heads.

"Nighttime we get it..but what else does she do? Dreams are just dreams, that’s nothing new." -Olivia said (knowing full well dreams come true!)

"Well, you know all those wonderful brilliant ideas in your head? The ones that you don’t think can leave your bed? The ones that you hide a deep in your heart?" "To bring them to life, the moon can show you where to start."

Mama Explained, "See the moon has phases, much like you, and I, but the magic in her phases, is the spark, & illumination they provide." "Just by tracking where she is in the sky, she can sense went just to let those brilliant ideas fly!

"has there ever been a time, darkness made you wish for familiar faces? you can discover her warm glow, in the darkest of places."

"This very same moon, hung over your great grandmothers. She knows everything about us, and she will never tell another."
