Anxcititey
Sheri, a bubbly five-year-old, learns about anxiety as she watches her mom struggle with it. Determined to help, Sheri encounters various obstacles but ultimately finds a way to bring comfort and understanding to her mom, teaching a valuable lesson in tolerance.
I heard my mom say it! Anxcititey ( an-cite-a-ty). She was talking with my dad.
Sheri decided to cheer her mom up with a dance. She twirled and giggled, hoping to make her mom laugh. But her mom was too preoccupied to notice. Sheri felt a little sad and wondered why her dance didn't work. She thought, 'Maybe I need to try something else.'
Sheri tried drawing her mom a picture with her crayons. She drew a big sun with a happy face and showed it to her mom. But her mom was still busy worrying. Sheri sighed and said, - Why isn't anything working? I just want to help you, Mommy. Her mom gave a small smile and said, - Thank you, sweetie. I appreciate it.
Feeling discouraged, Sheri sat on the porch with her head resting in her hands. She thought about giving up because nothing seemed to work. - Maybe I can't help, she muttered to herself. But giving up made her feel even worse. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to think of something new.
Just then, her neighbor, Mrs. Thompson, came by and sat with her. - Sometimes people need a little patience and understanding, Mrs. Thompson said gently. Sheri listened carefully and nodded. She realized that being there for her mom, even just sitting quietly, was important. Sheri decided to try this new approach.
Sheri went inside and sat next to her mom, holding her hand. - I'm here for you, Mommy, she said softly. Her mom squeezed her hand and smiled. Sheri felt happy knowing she was helping in her own way. Her mom's smile was the best treasure she could find, and together they learned to be more understanding of each other.
