Happy birthday adi !!!!!

Thank you friend!! Losing Leonard would be the end of the world for poor Laura Lee. She’s in hysterics. Usually such a peaceful and well behaved little, it’s a huge change. Everyone understands of course, Leonard means everything to little Laura Lee. She sobs for hours when she realises she can’t find him. Everyone offers her their stuffies to try soothe her but nothing works. That night she insists, tearily, that she can’t possibly sleep without him. After fruitless hours of trying to get her to sleep in her own bed, Van carries her down to the living room and puts the tv on quietly to soothe her. She ends up falling asleep eventually with the original MLP show playing quietly in the background - laying on Van’s chest with her cheeks all puffy and red. The next morning is tears all over again. She’s still missing Leonard only now she’s overtired too. Everyone is turning the house upside down but nothing is working. Laura Lee actually throws a tantrum - and everyone’s pretty sure it’s the first of her life. She throws all the toys anyone offers and when Lottie tries to pick her up Laura Lee throws herself on the ground. Eventually they calm her slightly - Shauna writes a letter ‘from Leonard’ saying he has gone on a biiig adventure!

For Lottie her birthday always makes her regress very young! She prefers to have a calm day for her birthday - with everyone at home. Playing games, baking, watching movies, it doesn’t really matter as long as her people are around her! Whenever she gets gifts she mainly just loves to play with the paper, boxes and ribbons! One year she gets a big doll house and spends all morning giggling as Van jumps in and out from behind the box pretending to disappear. She loves when a ribbon gets tied around Wasp’s collar and always ends up with one messily wrapped around her head. Balloons are also the most fun for baby Lot! Her siblings will race around the living room to avoid letting them drop on the floor and she crawls around giggling whenever it bumps her! Usually she’s too small to dress herself - so they get her in something soft and cozy + a shirt Laura Lee made her which says “birthday girl” on the front!!
