Right on Ellie Belly’s nose.

Hello, little guy.

Be really still, Ellie Belly.

Don’t scare the funny winged creature.

What does Forever Mom call these?

Flutterbyes?

That’s right.

Flutterbyes.

Thump!

Uh-oh.

What was that?

Flutterbye is leaving because Ellie Belly moved too fast.

Sorry, Flutterbye!

I need to make sure Forever Mom’s safe.

Sniff, scan, sniff, scan.

That smells like Forever Dad.

Look for Forever Mom first, Ellie Belly.

Forever Mom’s asleep on the rocking bed in the sky.

Ellie Belly will investigate.

And bring a sock.

Yes, I’ll pick . . . sniff, sniff, sniff . . . that one!

That’s the perfect sock for Forever Dad.

Quiet steps.

Don’t wake Forever Mom.

Forever Mom’s tired.

Tiptoe, tiptoe.

He’s inside by the big car.

But no funny lights.

Why no funny lights this time?

“Ellie?”
