“Finally,” exclaimed Isabelle. The sun was shining brightly as she stepped outside. The birds were singing and butterflies were darting from one colorful flower to the next. Mama was right. Hope Forest was a beautiful place. Isabelle was usually happy, and she didn’t want to be grumpy. She thought about how she could find her smile and what Mama did when she had a problem. Hummm...Mama would ask God.
THAT WAS IT! God would know how to find her smile. She needed to find God!
