Every night, after Omar and his sister Noor put on their pajamas, they would tiptoe quietly to Grandma's room and sit beside her on the warm bed, waiting for her lovely story.

Grandma smiled and said, "Tonight I'll tell you about an old olive tree that lived in a quiet village. Every evening, it would spread its branches wide to shelter tired little birds and give them a safe place to sleep."

Omar and Noor listened with calm attention, picturing the kind tree and its big branches, and how it would whisper to the birds, "Sleep safely, little ones, I am here watching over you."

Grandma said gently, "Just as the tree loved helping others, I love sitting with you both every night, because love and closeness with family bring peace to the heart before sleep."

Grandma kissed Omar and Noor's foreheads, tucked them under their warm blanket, and whispered, "Sleep well, and dream sweet dreams." They closed their eyes peacefully, smiling.

The Lesson: Quiet family time before bed fills the heart with love and peace.
