STORY: Mookie and the Magic Egg, Story 8
April Eight Songs & Stories
He took a deep breath and said, “Hi. I’m Mookie. This is Larkin.” Larkin squeezed Mookie’s hand again. I’m excited to wrap-up this story series because I feel like I found a satisfying ending for this tale. However, I am also sad about letting it all go for now. I love writing about Mookie and Grandpa. They are both so wise and kind. I love the friendship between Mookie and his best friend Larkin. I also love what Jemi and Sander bring to the team - their brains and focus. I love that color-changing baby Chromanian dragon, Baby, and, of course, I love Shamaya. Oh, and don’t...

Mookie and the Magic Egg, Story 2
April Eight Songs & Stories
Taking care of his chickens is one of Mookie’s favorite things to do. But one day, he was gathering eggs in the chicken coop for his Grandpa and found something quite curious. It was an egg, but certainly not a chicken egg. Still, Mookie cared for the green and blue speckled egg and wondered what or who was in there. Mookie carefully watched over the egg. And when it hatched, he and his friends could not believe their eyes!
info_outlineEpisode 39 is a song episode. Today’s song is one of my favorites. Hmmmm, I think I say that every time don’t I? Well my friends, I love to sing. I wrote this song for one of my listeners when she was 6 years old. Well, she must be 12 years old today! This song is about shining with your heart - no matter what! A great song for your kids at bath time, bedtime, car time, and family time.

Sarah Shining by April Eight
c 2012
Sarah it’s a lovely day
The wind blows cold and the skies are grey
Even the flowers are hiding away
But who cares for we have you,
Shining through.
Sarah smile for us.
Share the spark that shines from your heart
There’s nothing more that the world could hope for
Than the wonderful girl that is you,
Shining through.
Sarah happy birthday to you
Six years old, so much to be and do
Remember the light that shines in you
Can never go away,
Even on the greyest of days
You’ll shine through
Oh oh
You’ll shine through.
Happy 12th birthday, Sarah.
