The Magical Butterflies

Once upon a time, in a colorful garden, there were three little butterflies. Each butterfly was a different color: one was bright yellow, one was deep blue, and one was a lovely red. They danced and fluttered around the flowers, playing hide and seek.

“One, two, three!” they giggled as they flew together. The sun shone brightly, and the flowers swayed in the breeze.
