An elephant story

Today I thought I'd share Celeste's tale. She visited the hospital over the summer. Once upon a time, she was gifted to a baby girl, but after several decades, Celeste had lost her weight and her clothes and was popping seams all over. She was in danger even from the gentlest of hugs! Here are a couple of her many diagnosis photos:

Treatment involved many steps...

Step 1: a spa. You've all seen this, and it was important not only because of her stuffing and fur compression, but to determine her natural color for any transplants. Here she is in her bubble bath:

Of course when she was restuffed, she got a heart of her original stuffing, and it was gray as suited an elephant:

Step 2: Recover her footpads, repair her seams and get her chubbiness right. Here she is after seam repair and foot recovering and in her first chubbiness photo:

Her person wrote "She is looking fabulous!"

We ended up adding a bit more stuffing to plump her up.

Step 3: New velour tusks and a crown! If you know her story, or if you just wondered about the glue ring on her head, you may have seen this step coming:

The crown isn't attached here, because her person was deciding between velour and felt. Her person wrote "Fabulous!! Love the crown!" She went for the velour. :-)

Step 4: New clothes! Here she is all better and fashionably attired in clothes like she once had (or like you may've seen in her books):

Her person wrote: "Ohhh Celeste looks amazing!"

So she flew home --- not far, just another part of CA. And a few days later her person wrote: "Received my beautiful Celeste juat now. Thank you so much for restoring her"

We have to share this sad news about the author of Babar,

Laurent De Brunhoff has passed away few days ago at the age of 98. He was a great legend of our childhood and nostalgia. Babar wasn’t just a king, he was the father of an elephant family and his kingdom. Laurent has his creations to make Babar famous by selling millions of copies and premiering an animated series that fits into my heart. We are sad to hear this loss together as we mourn his passing and wish for the rest of his life with us to continue his legacy and his life upon this day. Babar will forever be continued with my future masterpiece and we hope he will be remembered forever.

Rest in Peace, Laurent De Brunhoff. You’re forever beloved and we will miss you always.

Never Forget 😔

Flora is wearing a historical style costume Cornelius made for her, for a costume contest she’s participating in. He’s just fixing the ribbon on the hat.

He worked so hard on it ;v; hope she wins.
