22
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: afraid of flying on an airplane. Have you guys ever

23
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: been on an airplane before? Maybe some of you. Well,

24
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: airplanes are very fun and if you've listened to some

25
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: of our other stories where we've had kids on airplanes,

26
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: they're very fun and very safe. But this was going

27
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: to be Karen's first time on an airplane, and he

28
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: who was a little nervous. He had always gone on

29
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: long trips with his family in the car, like on

30
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: road trips, which road trips are really on, but this

31
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: was gonna be his first time in an airplane, and

32
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: he was really nervous. You see, they were going to

33
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: their grandparents house for Christmas and it was not close by,

34
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: so it would take a very long time to drive,

35
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: so they choose they chose to fly. Karen asked his mom, Uh, Mom,

36
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: can I go play outside for a little bit before

37
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: we leave? Um, I'm just not ready yet. Okay, Karen,

38
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 1: you can play outside for a little bit, but then

39
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: we gotta go. All right, all right, I'll be back

40
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:42,200

Speaker 1: a little nervous about flying in an airplane and re start.

60
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: Maybe you could help give him a trick of not

61
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 1: to be scared anymore? Oh? Yeah, man, that's perfect. Hey, Curing,

00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: nice to meet you. My name's Bert the Crow. Oh hi,

63
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: hi Bert. Yeah, just like they said, I'm going on

64
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: an airplane today and I'm kind of nervous, like I've

65
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: never flown before. And we thought maybe you, since you

66
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: are a flying bird, do you have any tricks that

67
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: might help me not be so scared? Oh? Yeah, man,

68
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: you see, flying is just totally awesome. Flying through the

69
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 1: clouds and way up high you can see for miles.

70
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: It's totally rad. Bra Uh. Yeah, I believe you. I

71
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 1: think I know that you think it's totally awesome, but

72
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: I don't. So when you were little and you first

73
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: started flying, did you like, how did you learn? Oh right, well,

74
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: you see when I used to be scared. Um, my

75
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: mom gave me a cotton ball to put up in

76
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: the clouds, and she said, as long as I held

77
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: on to the cotton ball, it would keep me up. What. Yeah,

78
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: do you guys know that clouds are made of cotton balls?

79
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,679
Speaker 1: Yeah the crow he thinks clouds are made of cotton balls,

80
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 1: which is kind of silly, but let's pretend with him. Yeah, man,

81
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: cotton balls, they want to be in the air. Clouds

82
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: are made of those fluffy cotton balls, and so when

83
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: I put them in my pocket, it helps me fly

84
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: a lot better. Oh so you mean if like if I, um, oh,

85
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,359
Speaker 1: I think my parents in their bathroom they have some

86
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: cotton balls. You think if I put them in my

87
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: pockets when we fly, it'll help the plane stay up

88
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: in the clouds. Yeah, totally, man. You see the cotton balls,

89
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: they want to be up in the clouds. They're not

90
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: gonna fall, and so as long as you have them

91
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 1: in your pockets, you will be totally righteous man. Totally.

92
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: Uh okay, bro, thanks Burt. All right, um, squirrels, let's

93
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: let's hit back. I gotta I gotta find some cotton balls.

94
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: I'm not sure where to look, but maybe my mom will. No,

95
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:21,119
Speaker 1: let's let's go. The two squirrels and Karen ran back

96
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: to the house. They had to find some cotton balls.

97
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: All right, Oh gosh, where do we look? Where do

98
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: we look? Where do we look? Karen, We're leaving in

99
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: five minutes. Hurry up, how quick? Oh no, I gotta

100
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: find a cotton ball or like ten tens probably safer. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, okay. Uh.

101
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: Karen started to look everywhere, and there weren't any in

102
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: his bathroom, and there weren't in the kitchen, and and

103
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: finally there they are. He grabbed two handfuls and stuffed

104
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: them and both of his pockets. His pockets were now

105
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: very full of cotton balls. All right, Kieren, are you

106
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: ready to go? Oh? All right, yes, mom, I'm all ready.

107
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: What is in your pockets? Um? Oh, just you know,

108
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: some cotton balls, because it's going to help the plane fly.

109
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: And do you want some? His mom laughed, What in

110
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: the world are you talking about? Yeah, mom, you know,

111
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: conon balls. They want to be in the sky, and

112
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: so as long as I have them in my pockets,

113
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: then we're going to keep the plane up in the air.

114
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: That's that's kind of a fun idea. Karen, Can I

115
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: have some too? Karen's mom put some cotton balls in

116
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: her pockets too, and the whole family ran out to

117
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: the car and they were off to the airport. Karen

118
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: felt a lot better knowing that the airplane would stay

119
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: flying because he had his cotton balls with him. The

120
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: end
