They all make soup together, and as Kit breathes in the smell and breathes out to cool it, she finds herself feeling calmer. She even realizes her notebook isn’t as lost as she thought!

The Rainbow Kids were inspired to float down to earth from their rainbow home to bring joy, peace of mind, and sharing between children and adults. Three girls - Red Rylee, Yellow Yannie, and Green Gracie, and three boys - Orange Ozzie, Blue Brodie, and Purple Perry, share their everyday colorful adventures. Throughout the stories, there is plenty of energy and laughter as they engage in fun activities, as well as address some serious topics in a non-threatening way.

Things quickly got out of hand...until one more candidate showed up: a little girl with a thank-you gift for Sunday.

Until one night when no one comes, and it's finally her chance! But as it turns out, sleeping on the cot in the living room isn't all she thought it would be.

A Message in the Moon was inspired by Downey’s own story of losing her mother when she was just ten years old and the comfort her father brought her. Years later, when Downey left home for college, her father pointed to the full moon and told her, "Whenever you feel alone, always look into the night sky, and you’ll be reminded of how much I love you. I’ll leave a message for you in the moon.” That simple comfort remains with Downey today, and now she is passing it on to parents and children alike.

"If you aim your children at anything less than greatness, you'll set them up to miss the whole point of their lives," says author Tim Kimmel.

It’s no secret that the happiest and most successful adults all have habits that they incorporate into their lives as a child that allowed them to blossom into the powerful adult they are today. It doesn't matter where you are now or where you used to be; you have the opportunity to empower yourself and become the kid you are meant to be. Everything you desire or see in other people's lives can be yours with the power of affirmations. Oprah said it best: "You can have it all. Just not all at once."
