mayor lewis leaves you a wrapped box of parsnip seeds inside to plant when you first move in and the bed in your home is very different than the one we see grandpa laying on in the cutscene. they're always working together on various projects around town so i like to believe lewis and robin tried to make the place nice for you after being abandoned for so many years. and she even decorates it with her homemade furniture to match your farm <3 they really wanted to make you feel welcomed to pelican town, didn't they?
We took her to the dog park yesterday and she made herself the official greeter. AKA, as soon as she saw another dog was about to enter, she ran up to the gate so she could be the first to sniff them/say hi.
