She also gave her a hug and a band-aid for her knee. Sara was still crying. She said, "But I lost the race. You won. You are faster than me. I don't like it." She pushed Lily away and ran to her bike. She said, "I don't want to be your friend anymore. Go away." Lily was sad and confused. She said, "But Sara, we are friends.

You could have broken your bones or worse! Why did you disobey me?" Ben and Lily said, "We're sorry, mom. We just wanted to climb the tree. It looked fun." Mom said, "I know, but it was too dangerous. You are too small to climb such a high tree. Maybe when you are older and stronger, you can climb a safer tree. But for now, you have to listen to me and stay on the ground. Do you understand?" Ben and Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. We understand. We love you." Mom said, "I love you too. Now let's go inside and clean your wounds. And then you have to go to your room and think about what you did. No more climbing for you today."

You have to stop acting like this!" Lily and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We just wanted to have fun. We did not mean to make a mess. We did not know the TV was hot. We will clean up and say sorry to the cat." Mom hugs them and says, "I know you like to act, but you have to be careful. You can act in other ways. You can use toys and books and your imagination. You can act in the garden or in your room. But you cannot act with the TV or the cat. They are not for acting. They are for watching and loving." Lily and Ben nod and say, "OK, Mom. We understand. We will act in other ways. We love you and the TV and the cat." They help Mom clean up and say sorry to the cat. They give the cat a hug and a treat. They watch a new show on the TV.

"I don't think it is a toy, Ben. It does not look fun. It looks dangerous. Maybe it is a mistake. Maybe someone left it here by accident." Ben and Mia are confused.

What are you doing here?" the man asks. He smiles and kneels down. "We are playing, mister. But we found a screw. What is it for?" Ben asks. He points to the screw. The man laughs. "Oh, that is not a screw, kids. That is a bolt. It is part of a new swing set that I am building. See, there are more bolts over there. And some wood and metal. And some ropes and seats. When I am done, you can swing on the new swing set. It will be fun." Ben and Mia look at the man and then at the bolt. They are surprised. They did not know that a bolt is like a screw, but bigger.

Anna asked. "No, Anna. You can't pick it. If you pick it, it will die. You have to let it stay in the ground. Then it can bloom again next year." aunt Lily said. Anna was confused. She did not understand why she could not pick the flower. She wanted to have it in her room. She wanted to show it to her mom and dad. She thought the flower would be happy with her. She did not want to make the flower die, but she also did not want to leave it in the garden. "Aunt Lily, why can't I pick the flower? I will be very careful with it. I will give it water and sun. I will make it happy." Anna said. "Anna, I know you love the flower, but it is not like the other flowers. It is not a cut flower. It needs the soil and the roots to live. If you pick it, it will not have water and sun. It will not be happy. It will wilt and turn brown. It will not bloom again. Do you understand?" aunt Lily said. Anna thought for a moment. She looked at the peony. It was so pretty and bright. She wanted to keep it, but she also wanted it to live. She did not want to hurt it. She nodded her head. "I understand, aunt Lily. I will not pick the flower. I will let it stay in the garden. I will come and see it again next year. Maybe it will have more friends then." Anna said. "That's very good, Anna. You are a very smart and kind girl. I am proud of you. Come, let's go and see the other flowers. Maybe we can find some that you can pick and take home." aunt Lily said. Anna smiled and hugged aunt Lily. She was happy to have such a nice aunt. She was happy to see the peony. She hoped it would be happy too. She followed aunt Lily to the other flowers. She saw some roses, some daisies, and some sunflowers. She picked some of each and made a bouquet. She thanked aunt Lily and ran to show her mom and dad. She told them about the peony and how she learned to let it bloom.
