Adventures of the Sleepyheads

Hi! My name is Sleepyhead.

I woke up this morning very tired, but I danced out of my sleep and went to pollinate. 

I pollinate the powder puff plant. 

I like to see food closely. I live next door to my best friend, who is also a sleepy orange butterfly. 

At the park, we went to see a movie about butterflies. 

The movie was also about a powder puff named Pizza who was spiky and puffy and pink. Pizza lived on Crab Island, where the crabs were very nice. 

On Crab Island you can hear eagles and see sandcastles, and you can taste mac and cheese. 

It was a very good movie, even though we fell asleep more than once.

When we woke up, we were so inspired that we decided to go on an adventure on Belle Isle, and this is what happened.

We got to see a lot of plants. We felt the powder puff, and it felt very soft, like hair. Then, we got a little too hot, so we went outside and flew around. 

We played a game called Mr. Fox. 

One sleepy orange butterfly was the fox and all the others said, “Mr. Fox, Mr. Fox, what time is it?”

After the game, we wanted ice cream (strawberry, vanilla, cookies and cream, Superman, mint chocolate chip, and pistachio) to cool down. 

We started playing tag.

We played Duck, Duck, Goose. We sat on the grass and waited to be picked. We flew back across the river to our home, because we were tired and wanted to chill. We made some pollen marshmallows first, because everybody needs a snack before bed! 

After we ate, we brushed our teeth, drank some water, and went back to sleep, dreaming of our great adventure!
