Eager to greet the sun today, Brian and Winfield, his wheelchair, rolled over to the window. Then, gently moving the delicate curtain aside, Brian peered out. Sunlight streamed through the window. Brian took a deep Dragon Breath, in and out, enjoying the warmth. What a beautiful day! Now it was time for breakfast! Brian and Winfield rolled over to the kitchen table to have some breakfast with his mom and dad.<br> <br> As Brian ate, he gazed at the front door, waiting for a knock. He hoped Javier and Anora would arrive soon. Brian could hardly wait to try a hike in the woods. Now that Winfield had some off-road tires, Brian wanted to explore everything he could. With a full belly, Brian rolled his dishes over to the sink to help his dad and mom clean up. As they washed, dried, and put them away, Brian imagined what it would be like to roll through the woods without a sidewalk anywhere in sight.<br> Today’s Meditation: Feel your body fill with warmth and love as you send your loving energy to the world.<br> Looking for a way to help your child learn <a href="https://www.ahwayisland.com/happy-dragon-emotional-regulation/">emotional regulation and how to self-soothe</a>?
