С добрым утром, Карлхен!

Utrom mama prikhodit v detskui͡u i laskovo govorit: "Karlkhen, pora vstavatʹ!" No, kazhetsi͡a, v komnate pusto. Kuda zhe podevalsi͡a eë synochek?

In the morning, Mom comes to the nursery and gently says, "Karlchen, it's time to get up!" But the room seems to be empty. Where had her son gone? Mom gently pulls on the end of the blanket and asks softly, "Karlchen, where are you?" Instead of Karlchen, a sleepy toy penguin sticks out from under the blanket. Mom pulls the blanket a little harder. There is no Karlchen, just a toy doggie. Mom pulls again, and a teddy bear appears from under the blanket. It's only when Mom pulls the blanket all the way down that she finally finds her son curled up in a ball. "Good morning, Mommy!" says Karlchen and laughs.
