I’m Trudy.”  She said.<br> <br> “I’m Bing. Is this your garage?”  The bicycle said.<br> <br> “Oh, no. I just park here.  I help the little girl roll down the driveway safely.  Judging from that bow on your handlebars, I’m sure we’ll find out who you will be helping pretty soon.<br> Today’s Meditation: Today, enjoy the feeling of your body relaxing into the warm sand on a sunny beach.<br> Looking for a way to help your child learn <a href="https://www.ahwayisland.com/happy-dragon-emotional-regulation/">emotional regulation</a> and how to self soothe?  You'll find them on Ahway Island®.
