Sara liked to gather flowers in the park. She had a big basket and she filled it with red, yellow and pink flowers. She liked to give them to her friends and family.
On Tuesday, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a boy with a kite. The kite was blue and green and it flew high in the sky. Sara wanted to play with the kite. She was envious of the boy.
She asked her mom, "Can I have a kite too?"
Her mom said, "Maybe for your birthday, Sara. Kites are not cheap. You have to save money for them."
Sara was sad. She did not want to wait for her birthday. She wanted a kite now.
She saw the boy put down his kite and run to the swings. She had an idea. She left her basket of flowers and ran to the kite. She picked it up and tried to fly it.
But the boy saw her. He was angry. He shouted, "Hey, that's my kite! Give it back!"
Sara was scared. She dropped the kite and ran back to her mom. She cried, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just wanted to try it."
Her mom hugged her and said, "Sara, you can't take things that are not yours. That's not nice. You have to ask first. And you have to be happy with what you have. You have beautiful flowers. They are a gift from nature. You should share them with others."
Sara felt ashamed. She nodded and said, "You're right, mom. I'm sorry. I will share my flowers."
She went to the boy and said, "I'm sorry I took your kite. It was wrong. Can I give you some flowers to say sorry?"
The boy was surprised. He said, "Really? You want to give me flowers?"
Sara said, "Yes, I do. They are pretty and they smell good. And they are for you."
The boy smiled and said, "Thank you, Sara. That's very kind of you. Do you want to fly my kite with me?"
Sara smiled too and said, "Yes, I do. Thank you, too."
They became friends and played with the kite and the flowers. Sara learned to be happy with what she had and to be generous with others. She was not envious anymore. She was glad.
