Perfect How I Am
Thea, a joyful three-year-old girl in Australia, dreams of having long hair. She faces obstacles trying to make her hair grow, but with the help of her wise grandmother, Thea learns an important lesson about self-acceptance and wisdom.
Thea lived in sunny Australia, where she loved to play and have fun. But there was one thing Thea wished for more than anything—long, flowing hair like her friend Mia. " - I want long hair like Mia," she told her mom. Thea's mom smiled, " - Your hair is beautiful just as it is." But Thea was determined to make her hair grow.
Thea decided to try and make her hair grow faster. She put on all her sparkly jewelry, hoping it would help. " - Maybe if I wear lots of jewelry, my hair will grow," she thought. But no matter how many necklaces she wore, her hair stayed the same. " - This isn't working!" she sighed.
Thea thought of another idea. She stood on a stool to reach the top of her closet, where she found a big, fluffy hat. " - This hat will make my hair grow!" But the hat only made her hot and itchy. " - It's not working again," Thea said sadly. She felt like she would never have long hair.
Feeling upset, Thea sat on her bed and decided to give up. " - Maybe I'll never have long hair," she whispered. She looked at her reflection, feeling a little sad. Her mom noticed and sat beside her. " - What's wrong, Thea?" she asked gently. " - I just want long hair," Thea replied.
Thea's grandmother came to visit and saw she was sad. " - What's troubling you, Thea?" she asked softly. Thea explained her wish for long hair. Her grandmother chuckled, " - Wisdom is knowing you are perfect just as you are." Thea thought about this and smiled, realizing she loved her hair just as it was.
With her grandmother's wisdom, Thea felt happier. She played outside, her short blonde curls bouncing in the breeze. " - I love my hair!" she giggled, twirling around. Her friends joined her, and they all laughed together. Thea learned she was perfect just how she was.
