Alma Raincoat and Halima Hat join Britney as she plays outside in the rain. Narrator: Male Story Begins: 4:17 Puddle Playtime Excerpt: Ahway Island had been basking in the sun for weeks. The days had grown hotter and hotter; the air felt heavy and sticky as the humidity rose. Finally, one morning, the sky seemed to say, “That’s enough!” and unleashed a torrent of rain. It poured down in sheets, drumming a loud rhythm on the rooftops and washing away the summer heat. After the initial downpour, the rain softened into a gentle but steady stream of drops. Inside a cozy little house, a sense of anticipation filled the closet. There, nestled in the cool dark, hung Alma Raincoat. The little yellow coat was so excited as she waited for her little girl, Britney Love, to take her out. Today’s Meditation: Relax your whole body from head to toe in this meditation.
