That's our challenge, where for five days 5 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: in a row, your kids listen to some awesome stories 6 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: to use their imagination and watch their creativity come to life. 7 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: You see, we make stories every single day for you, 8 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: and you just never know what kind of story you're 9 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: gonna find on any given day. So hang with me 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 1: for five days, whether maybe driving in the car or 11 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: maybe during lunchtime, and I think you're gonna find something 12 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:48,279 Speaker 1: pretty amazing happens. Well, friends, are you ready for today's adventure? 13 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: Me too? Let's go. All right, December, are you ready 14 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: to head back for your surgery? Okay, I gotta choose 15 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: to be brave. One two, three, Yes, let's go, said 16 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: December victoriously. Today was a big day that she had 17 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: been a little nervous about for a long time. It 18 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: was the day that she was gonna have surgery on 19 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: her eye. Her eye had something that only a doctor 20 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: could fix. And I know doctors can sometimes be scary, right, Yeah, 21 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: whenever I go to the doctor, I'm a little. I'm 22 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: I'm honestly, I'm nervous every time. Mister Jim. Yep, even 23 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: mister Jim is nervous when he goes to the doctor. 24 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: But doctors are pretty awesome. Do you know why. Yeah, 25 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: because our grown ups, our parents, and doctors their job 26 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: is to keep us safe and to do the best 27 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: things for us. And so December she needed the surgery 28 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: on her eye, and even though it's a little scary, 29 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: it was the best thing for her. And you're not 30 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: gonna believe what happens. It's pretty amazing. But that's at 31 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: the end of the story. So let's get there. Well, 32 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: December headed back for surgery and there were all kinds 33 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: of tubes and wires and all kinds of different things 34 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: that were attached to her. And it's really important for 35 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: the doctors to know exactly what your body is doing 36 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: while they're about to go into surgery, because they need 37 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: to make sure that your blood has the right oxygen. 38 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: Needs to know that that you're breathing well and that 39 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: everything is just right, that your heart is beating at 40 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: the right time. Everything is perfect, and then it's time 41 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: to go to sleep. You see, when you go into surgery, 42 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: you go to sleep, the doctors do all the work 43 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: and you just get to sit back and sh sh, 44 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: just dream about the most amazing adventures that you've ever 45 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: gone on. Well, as soon as December closed her eyes 46 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: and went to sleep, it felt like it was just 47 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: a split second or a minute, and then she felt 48 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: her grown ups, her parents, tapping her on her arms, saying, December, December, 49 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: it's time to wake up. You're all done and you're 50 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: all better. She carefully opened up her eyes. But the 51 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: one eye that had the surgery done on it, there 52 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: was a little bit of a patch on it, kind 53 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: of like a pirate patch. So the first thing out 54 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: of December's mouth was, I'm hungry. Everybody in the room 55 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: laughed because December was so hilarious. Well, back at home, 56 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: her best friend Levi was planning a party for her 57 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: with all of her friends, and as soon as she 58 00:03:54,800 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: got home, they surprised her surprise. She walked in the 59 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: door and was greeted by Levi and all the friends. 60 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: They were so happy to see December back home. Wow, 61 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: thanks guys so much. You're the best friends in the 62 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: whole wide world. Isn't it great to have really good friends? Yeah? 63 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: I love having good friends and that they can be 64 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: there for you when you need them, or maybe you 65 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: can be there for them, like if if your friend 66 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: has surgery or is not feeling well or has a 67 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: rough day, then you can send them a really happy 68 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: voice memo, or maybe call them and FaceTime them and 69 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: tell them that you miss them, or all kinds of 70 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: fun things. There's all kinds of creative ways, maybe drawing 71 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: a picture. Well, it was time for Levi and all 72 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: the friends to leave because December needed to rest. You see, 73 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: one of the things that's really important about after surgery 74 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: is that you have a lot of rest time, which 75 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: is kind of nice. You get to curl up in 76 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: your bed with your special blankets and pillows and just 77 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: have a lazy couple days of resting and maybe listening 78 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: to stories or just relaxing. Nice. December laid down, She 79 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: felt sleepy and fell right to sleep. Over the next 80 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: few days, December's body was was healing and her eyes 81 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: were feeling a lot better. It was finally time to 82 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: take off that pirate patch. Are As fun as it 83 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: was to pretend to be a pirate, December was very 84 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: ready for it to come off, as she carefully removed 85 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: the eye patch from her eye. She blinked her eyes 86 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: and something felt funny. Everything looked really good, and her 87 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: vision was perfect and every everything was good. But she 88 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: almost felt kind of a tingly superpower inside of her eye. Hmmm, strange. 89 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: It must be just you know that feeling will wear 90 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: off soon. Levi came over later that day and they 91 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: wanted to build a fort together. That was one of 92 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: the favorite things that they loved to do is build 93 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: blanket forts and make caves and all kinds of cool 94 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: places to make pretend stories in Hey, December, said Levi. 95 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: He had just gotten there and December was all ready 96 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: for their fun. Perfect. Well, I have all our blankets 97 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: and pillows and chairs and everything that we need to 98 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 1: make the most amazingly epic fort, said December. They got 99 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: to work immediately, and pretty soon they had created the 100 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: most amazing, epic, giantess blanket fort of all time. Have 101 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: you ever made a blanket fort before? Oh? I love 102 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: blanket forts. I think you've heard me talk about them before, 103 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: But blanket forts are so cool. I wish I wasn't 104 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: so big. I kind of miss being smaller that I 105 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: can fit inside of those blanket forts, because when you 106 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: get bigger, it's kind of hard to squeeze inside a 107 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: blanket cave without knocking it all over. Or maybe I 108 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: need bigger chairs and a bigger fort. Maybe. Well, December 109 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: and leave I were having a great time, and all 110 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: of a sudden they realized that they had stumbled into 111 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: some kind of secret cave that led down to the basement. 112 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: How did this happen, Levi, I said, I don't know. 113 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: This secret passage was never here before. December had lived 114 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: in this house for a very long time and had 115 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: never noticed a secret passage that went down to the basement. 116 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: The only secret passage that she knew about to the 117 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: basement was through the door, like the normal door, but 118 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: this was something different. All right, it's kind of dark 119 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: down there, said Levi. December appeared around the corner and said, 120 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: it's not that dark. Come on. December led the way 121 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: down deeper and deeper towards the basement. They crawled, and 122 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: pretty soon Levi couldn't see anything. Uh, maybe we should 123 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: go back and get a flashlight, Like, this is so dark, 124 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? I can see just fine. 125 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: Then December blinked her eyes a few times, and realized 126 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm seeing night vision right now. What said LEVI, I'm serious. 127 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: December couldn't believe it. She kept blinking her eyes. I 128 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: can see in the dark. I believe you that it's 129 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: pitch black down here, but I can see just fine. 130 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: It's like I have night vision goggles built into my 131 00:08:55,400 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, Holy smokes. I think the doctor might have. 132 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if they did this on purpose, but 133 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: I think they gave me some kind of night vision. 134 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: This is amazing. Levi had to run back and grab 135 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: a flashlight to join December the rest of the time 136 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: in their basement journey. But this was just the beginning 137 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: of December's night vision adventures. Yes, that surgery had somehow 138 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: transformed her eyes into having night vision. Wow. I wish 139 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: I had night vision too. That would be so cool 140 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: to be able to walk around in a dark place 141 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: and see everything. Oh man, I'm a little jealous of 142 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: December's eyes, but I'm pretty excited to hear about the 143 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: adventures ahead for December and LEVI. Wow, what an amazing adventure. 144 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: I'm so glad that she chose to be brave and 145 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: do that eye surgery that helped her eye and even 146 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: gave her a bonus superpower.
