Hi everyone! It’s Nicole and Victoria here! We figured ForestPoodle wouldn’t do anything for Sophie’s birthday because she always forgets –
SHE FORGOT MY BIRTHDAY!!!
Yep, so we decided WE would do something for Sophie!
And then we wanted to collect pictures and everything, but she’d already done that herself, so we’re just going to share Sophie’s favourite memories with you, along with her captions, because honestly, they’re funnier than I am.
That’s not true, you’re plenty funny!
Yeah, but I’m not funny plenty like Sophie is.
That’s cause you’re trying to do dad jokes, Toria. Those are hard to get good at.
I know. It’s probably ’cause I’m not a dad . . . But my sister jokes are pretty good, right, Nicole?
Uh, yeah, sure, but let’s get back to why we’re here.
Oh, yeah, so without further ado about absolutely nothing and everything, I present to you . . .
*long pause*
Uh, Nicole, you were supposed to say ‘duh duh duhnnnnn’.
Oh, sorry. Duh duh DUHNNNNN!
*whispers* Excellent.
*also whispers* Thanks.
. . . Sophie’s photo album! That doesn’t sound as dramatic out loud.
It’s okay, let’s just show them the pictures! We took them all ourselves! Well, I took them, even though V’s better at photography, because I have to work on mine. Anyway, here we go.

Oh, I remember this! I got dressed up like an orca! And Hailey was a clamshell and Emilia was a seahorse and Charlotte was an octopus! It was lots of fun!

Uh, there’s no snow in this picture . . . are you sure it was the middle of winter?
Well, yeah, it was the no-snow part of the middle of winter!

Everything is lots of fun with Sophie.

From the post that was never posted.

And yet she still likes Sophie! But not me.

Hey, it’s another Victoria! I’d like to meet this cat someday!
I’ll get Hailey to bring her next time she comes. Hailey’s due to come over anyway.

Horsey Dear was so kind that day.

Fortunately for you, you can! Right here.
Okay, hold up, Nicole, I gotta put the link in. Alright, now here.

This was the one year that ForestPoodle88 actually remembered all of our birthdays . . .
Hey, at least we’re celebrating Sophie’s!

Aww, you gave her your green olives? That’s so sweet!
Well, I don’t exactly like green olives . . .

No, it was not a nice explosion.

We should try that again now that I’m here!

Uh, trees can’t stop you from climbing them . . .

Yes, we are fantastic at it!

Actually, they should be mine.
Hey, they’re my boots! I got them for Christmas!

We kinda forgot to celebrate its third birthday . . .

Hey, I’m in the photo album now!

Well, it’s not like we have skateboarder clothes.

They were very tasty sisters.

She spelt ‘metre’ wrong!
Yeah, but she’s right that we need more books! I’m almost done the Land of Stories series!

Playing pirates is great!
It sure is. Okay, now what do we do now that we’re done?
Uh, we tell everyone how great Sophie is and how lucky we are to have her as a sister and how funny she is and cute and awesome and –
Take a breath, Toria! But yes, Sophie is absolutely amazing and we hope she has a magical birthday!
Happy Birthday Sophie!
*really long pause while we carry out dolly things*
Okay, we got some pictures for you of Sophie – and us – on this spectacularly special day!
The magnitude of special is astounding!
There’s only one extraordinary day you get to turn one exact year older!
*both collapse into giggles and forget about the blog post*
Oh, um, bye!
And happy birthday Sophie! You look stunning in this picture!
