The Moss and the Big Boy Bed: A Nighttime Book

 

One day, a Moss was born.  

His mama loved him fiercely, and wanted only for him to be happy and safe. 

So she made him sweet milk to be happy,
 

and she brought him her cradle from Grandaddy Roush to be safe.  

But the Moss was so so little, and so so new.  

The little new Moss needed to drink the sweet milk every time the hourglass turned over to be happy, 

and the little new Moss did not always feel safe in his beautiful cradle. 

So the mama of the Moss thought and thought, "How can Moss be safe and happy?", while the dad of the Moss played with Moss toes.

And the mama of the Moss finally thought, "A Moss feels happiest and safest when he is very very near". 

So a Moss and a mama began to sleep very near and very beside.

But poor the Dad slept far from the two who were near.

So the mama and the dad thought and thought, "How can all be safe and happy?", while the Moss played with Moss hands.

 And they finally thought "Aha!", and the dad of the Moss built the Big Boy Bed.

Oh happy day,

and safe twilight.

 

Now all are happy and all are safe and all are beside.  Hooray!
