Alyej is a smart little ‘Wee People.’ She is seven inches tall. The size of a small banana. Aleyej loves bright colours. Orange, yellow and green are her favourites. She wears bright hair bands in her hair and colourful dresses fill her ‘lunchables box’ dresser.
Today Alyej tidied up the kitty litter box for the ‘Big People,’ as her ‘good deed’ for the day. It was a tough job but she felt good afterwards.
The ‘Big People’ were visiting relatives and Alyej was supposed to meet her friend ‘Enaj’ in the backyard for a running race.
Alyej was very nervous and could feel the butterflies dancing around in her tummy. She wanted so badly to win the race but didn’t think she could because ‘Enaj’ was great at everything. That kind of made Alyej feel bad.
Alyej then remembered what her mom told her, that ‘if you don’t believe you can do something you won’t...always believe in yourself and you will be great.’
That made Alyej smile and she told herself she could win the race. She really believed she could.
Enaj was not very nice about it and told Alyej it was going to be easy to beat her.
Alyej did not listen to her and kept telling herself she was going to run very fast and win the race.
And guess what? She did just that. Alyej believed in herself and ran the fastest she has ever run before.
Alyej could hardly believe it!
She was so happy and even told Enaj that she ran well too. Enaj was a little sad but laughed and told Alyej she was great.
