Mrs. Buttons and Her Magical Cards

I began telling stories in my early years and yet waited until later in life to put one of my stories in a children's book. The dream to create a book came because a beautiful little baby girl named Clairabelle was born. Over the last eight years, when we had Nana-Clairabelle time, I would tell her of the adventures of Mrs. Buttons. Naturally being the creative, imaginative, artistic child she is, Clairabelle asked many questions, and of course would add to Mrs. Button's adventures.



One day I asked her to draw a picture of Mrs. Buttons on a card, and what a beautiful picture she created. Eventually, she decorated Mrs. Buttons' dress with many colorful buttons. I noticed she glued a very special gold-looking button right where she believed Mrs. Button's heart is.



Clairabelle, in her excitement, said, "Nana, press the special button and make a wish." As I did, I said, "Clairabelle, this wish comes from deep within my soul." And forevermore, I gave it the name of "Soul Button." I eventually sent the soul button card to a friend.



The cards are made thinking of how exceptional the soul button is. It creates a special touch to each card. If you send someone a magical soul button card, imagine a very special wish and tell him or her that the card comes with a wish.



I thought it was a great idea to write a story about Mrs. Buttons and all the little children who enjoyed making magical cards and sending them to people they cared about. This is their story.
