Flora was almost done getting ready. The only thing left to do was to attach her favourite pink-and-purple bow to her ponytail. She was admiring her completed look in the mirror when Mum popped her head in through the bedroom door.
“Are you ready to get started now, Flora?” Mum asked
“Yes, Mum, let’s go!” Flora replied as she grabbed her mother’s and pulled her along.
As the fairy duo stepped out into their garden, Flora’s mum gestured for them to sit on the wooden bench just beneath the blooming peach tree.
“Okay, Flora, I guess today we can start with learning how to fly using your new wings”, Mum said as they sat on the bench, “Before we actually fly off, I have to explain a few things first”
Flora nodded along in excited anticipation as her mum explained to her the basics of fairy flight.
The most important things Flora learned was to always stay focused on where she was flying, always be brave enough to take the leap, and think kind, happy and pure thoughts. Doing all these things, Flora was sure to become an expert at flying with time and practice.
