Poppy: “Hi! Merlot said you wanted to see me?”

Lacey: “Hi, love! I want to introduce you to a friend of mine. This is Eloise Spark. She has several children around your age who you’ll be meeting when you start school in a few days.”

Poppy: “Hello, I’m Poppy Echo.”

Eloise: “Hello, Poppy Echo! It’s so nice to meet you!”

Poppy: “You can just call me Poppy. My last name is Aviary right now, but Mrs. Pinot Noir says I’m going to become a Pinot Noir one day too!”

Eloise: “Wow! That sounds pretty cool!”

Lace: “We’ve kind of…adopted someone.”

Eloise: “Wait, what?”

Lace: “A close friend of ours, a local police officer, informed us that a little girl was in need of a new home. We had always wished we had more children, but somehow the timing never seemed right. Merlot and I aren’t getting any younger, but we thought maybe we should share our home with an older child in need of a family.”

Merlot: “Just thinking about what that little girl went through makes my blood boil! How could someone just abandon a child like that?”

Lace: “Love, why don’t you go get her and then brew us some Calming Chamomile? I have a feeling we all might end up frazzled after I finish telling Elo what happened.”
