One day, MB is happy because it’s his birthday but unhappy because he haven’t got even 1 birthday card from anyone in the universe so he had an idea and made a birthday card out of the 1 face of the cereal box. MB put it in a letter and pretended that it was written to him by someone else so he’s very happy and I think that he forgot that it was made by him. After he makes the card, he takes away the flower on the shelf with him making it into a birthday present and pretends it’s from teddy again. Then MB is so happy I think he almost kissed Teddy. Then he puts the present on the shelf where it had been 5 minutes before he had made it into a present.
