Welcome back to kitch or Stories Premium. 17 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: It was Gabriella's birthday and she was so excited to 18 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: spend it with her family. They had thrown a ginormous 19 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: birthday party for her and it was the best day ever. 20 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: Gabriella started opening all her presents and all her favorite 21 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: things were there, and she was so happy. The last 22 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: thing came from her grandpa. She called him Papa, and 23 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: she said, Papa, can I open your present now? You 24 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: see he had been talking about this present for a 25 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: very long time. He said it was going to be 26 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: one of the most special presents she's ever received, and 27 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: so she was very excited to open this gift from him. 28 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: And her papa said, yes, Gabriella, now is the time. 29 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: Here you go, and he handed her a small box. 30 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: As she carefully opened the tiny ribbon in the wrapping 31 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: paper on this small box, it opened up an inside. 32 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: What what is this, Papa? Inside was a seed and 33 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: her Papa said, Gabriella, that is a treehouse seed. What 34 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: is a treehouse seed? Gabriella said, you see, this seed 35 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: is one of the most special seeds in the entire world. 36 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: It will grow into a big tree that has a 37 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: treehouse built into it. No way, that's so cool. But 38 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: one thing that you have to be careful of. You 39 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: have to use the treehouse for good things. It cannot 40 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: fall into any of the wrong hands of this world, 41 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 1: because this treehouse carries special powers in it, special powers 42 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: pop what kind of like? What does that mean? It 43 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: is a mystery, my dear. But your job now is 44 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: to plant the seed in a very special place and 45 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: to make sure it gets water and sunlight, and that 46 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: no weeds tried to stump it out and no creatures 47 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: tried to eat it. It is your job, and now 48 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: you are old enough for such a task as this. 49 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: Gabrielle could not wait to have the seed planted. She 50 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: found a spot the next day in her backyard that 51 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: was a perfect spot. There was plenty of room and 52 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: really nice soil, and so she cleared the area and 53 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: made the dirt nice and soft and planted the seed 54 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: right in the middle. She had several cups of water 55 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: that she gently poured on top of the seed, and 56 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: that began her journey. And boy, oh boy, would it 57 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: end in a crazy way. You see seeds, do they 58 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: grow really fast or kind of slow? Yeah? Kind of slow. Well, 59 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: her Papa seed that he gave her is actually a 60 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: seed that grows very quickly, and so most big, big 61 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: trees take many, many years to grow. Well. Gabrielle's treehouse 62 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: tree took only one summer. The next day, the very 63 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: next day, Gabriella went outside, thinking that the seed would 64 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: still be in the ground. She was very surprised. It 65 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: was now three ft tall. It was almost up to 66 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: her chin. She couldn't believe it. This is amazing. This 67 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: is the fastest growing thing I've ever seen in my 68 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: whole life. This is gonna be so cool. All right, Well, 69 00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: now that is out of the ground, I have got 70 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: him make sure it stays safe and nothing else hurts it, 71 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 1: just like Papa said. And so that's exactly what she did. 72 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: She built a small fence around the tree to keep 73 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: it safe, because each day it would grow taller and taller, 74 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: and creatures were growing very curious of it. The squirrels 75 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: and the birds and the rabbits. They would all watch 76 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: as it grew. If you looked close enough, you could 77 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: almost see the tree grow. By day four, it was 78 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: way taller than her and it was starting to have 79 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: big green leaves. This is so cool, Gabriella said. And 80 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: I wonder how it's gonna, like, you know, grow into 81 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: some kind of treehouse and not just be like a 82 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 1: normal tree. The very next day, she went outside and 83 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: look at that there's like a floor. That's exactly what happened. 84 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: The tree was growing up, but all of a sudden 85 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: started to grow a platform or a floor for the treehouse. 86 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: That is so cool. That day she had to scare 87 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: off some squirrels that had tried to make a nest 88 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: on top of her tree, but that was easy to 89 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: do because squirrels are very skittish. As she continued to 90 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: water the tree and care for it, there was a 91 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: storm coming one day, and so she had to make 92 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 1: sure that it was safe. She attached some really big 93 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: sticks and some big pieces of wood to it to 94 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: make sure that it wouldn't get knocked over in the wind. 95 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: And that night she spent almost the whole night looking 96 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: out her window making sure that her tree was safe. 97 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: It had been three and a half weeks since her 98 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: birthday party, three and a half weeks of this tree 99 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: growing and growing, three and a half weeks of her 100 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: caring for it, watering it, and protecting it from other 101 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: creatures that were trying to build a home in it. 102 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: And today was the day. The tree had grown so 103 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: tall it was now almost as tall as her house, 104 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: and the treehouse had grown windows and doors and a 105 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: floor in a roof and walls, but something kept happening. 106 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: She couldn't believe it. Every day she would come out 107 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: and there were different animals that were trying to build 108 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: a home in there, and every day she had to 109 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: scare them away, just like her papa had said. Oh wait, 110 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: is that what he said? Is? Did he say to 111 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: keep everyone out of it? I don't think so. And 112 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: she called her papa and said, Papa, it's getting really 113 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,119 Speaker 1: frustrating because the tree is getting really awesome and really big, 114 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: but all these animals and creatures keep trying to make 115 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: a home in it, and I don't want them to 116 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: do bad things with it, and so I keep getting 117 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: rid of them. What am I supposed to do? How 118 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,679 Speaker 1: do I keep them out? Wow, Gabriella, I'm so glad 119 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: you called, and I'm so glad to hear that your 120 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: tree is growing. That's very exciting. But do you remember 121 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: what I said about it? Yes? I did not say 122 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: to keep everyone out of it. I did say to 123 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: make sure that love grows inside. Remember, Oh yeah, yes? 124 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: And so maybe those creatures are the love that that 125 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 1: tree house needs. And just like that, Gabriella changed her mind. 126 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: She had a new idea. Wait a second, maybe this 127 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: treehouse is not just for me, but maybe I'm supposed 128 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: to share it with other creatures too. She was so 129 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: excited to run outside and not scare any of the 130 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: creatures away. This treehouse began an amazing journey for her 131 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: and she made new friends and yes friends, with the creatures. 132 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: The squirrels, the birds, and the chipmunks. They all found 133 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 1: a happy place to live in that tree house, and 134 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: it was all because of Gabriella, because she chose to 135 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: share what was given to her with other creatures that 136 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: needed a home. How special is that? Isn't that special 137 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: when we get to share some of our things with 138 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: our friends or our family? Right? Yeah? Sharing is so 139 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: special because we get to share something really fun with 140 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: someone else, and it's always a lot more fun to 141 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: be happy with somebody else, right Yeah, And that is 142 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: what Gabriella learned. She learned that it was more happy 143 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: to share horse her special treehouse with other creatures than 144 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: to keep everyone else else out and keep it for herself. 145 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: So this week, I want you to find something very 146 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: special that you I think it's very special to you, 147 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: and I want you to find someone to share it with. 148 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: Don't worry, they're not going to take it away from you. 149 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: But I want you to share something happy with someone else.
