A road trip, a charming family, a missing present, a kid and his smart dog named Miles, a funny book with ❤️.

🥰🥰🥰

A family of lying peacefully in bed together. The kids are in pajamas. The Dad and two of the children are still asleep. One child is beginning to awake with a big stretch while the Mom sleepily looks on with a smile.

A child wearing a pink striped swim cap and matching swimsuit is swimming and has come face to face with a green and purple fish.

A child with black hair in pigtails is sitting behind a store counter next to jars of sweets, looking pensive.

A hallway full of children and their two teachers in the middle of a party for their class plant Jerry. On the far left one child is dressed as a cactus. Other children are holding various items such as a watering can, a bucket, a water bottle, a bird, a rodent, a hat, a cat. On the wall is a sign that says, “The World’s Best Class Plant.” Sitting on the floor is a child holding a sign that says, “Jerry Appreciation Day.”
