Molly and Felicity visited Emily, DeeDee, and Caroline at my mom's the other day. As they sat down for tea Felicity was excited to see cake! "Cake! she exclaimed, "Is this for a special occasion?"
"Yes!" replied Caroline, "We have a surprise to show you! We are celebrating the fact that we have a new room and furniture!!"
The girls clapped their hands and bounced around all excitedly. "So today is our big reveal of our new rooms!" added DeeDee.
"As soon as we finish tea we will take you to see!" said Emily with a big enthusiastic smile.
The girls spent some quality time catching up and enjoying their tea and cake then Emily, DeeDee, and Caroline walked Molly and Felicity into their new rooms.
First Caroline showed her beautiful new canopy bed.
"Oh wow, it's like a princess bed!" said Molly.
"I have a canopy bed at home too!" added Felicity.
Next DeeDee flopped down on her new Jenny Lynn bed. "This one's mine!" She shouted.
"You know what's special about my bed?... It matches the baby furniture in Grammy's nursery. See here is the changing table that we now use as a bookshelf. And this Jenny Lynn changing table and the matching crib were Lissy's and her older brothers' when they were babies!"
"Jeepers! Grammy must have been so excited to find your bed DeeDee, which is a perfect match! That's so neat-o that she's kept this furniture all these years!" said Molly.
Then Molly turned toward Emily sitting on the trundle daybed. "So does this mean that the daybed is all yours now Emily?"
"Yes that's right-o! Except when you or Felicity sleepover then you'll have the trundle!"
"Cool!" belted out both Felicity and Molly.
"Oh and look at this!" Butted in DeeDee. "We also got this old fashioned washstand!"
"And there is the little palm cross we made last year on Palm Sunday," piped in Emily

"Then over here is our little sitting area," Caroline said as she lead them back towards the center of the room.
"This all looks great!" said Felicity.
"Yes and it's so cozy but you have lots of room to play too," agreed Molly.
"Yeah we love it and we are so appreciative that Grammy did this for us."
"It feels more like a home now."
"Hey let's play dolls!" suggested DeeDee.
"I want to play with the puppies!" said Felicity as they all piled on top of her.
The girls continued playing and having a jolly time in their new little space.
