I know 24 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 2: it was a dream, so it could have been anyone 25 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: or anything, but you know the people who were there 26 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 2: very well. It was Mamma got Titi and cousin Stella. 27 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: She brought her American girl doll, Kayla, and we were 28 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: all having the best time. After hearing that, Ivy's mom 29 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: knew that her daughter was definitely having this dream because 30 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 2: she had been thinking about and missing her new doll 31 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 2: and Stella the day of her birthday party. After hearing 32 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: this new piece of information, Levi had to run back 33 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 2: to his dad before he left the house, and it 34 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 2: was a good thing he ran as fast as he did, 35 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 2: because he caught his dad just before. 36 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:46,559 Speaker 1: He was heading out the door. 37 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 2: Dad Dad called out Levi, trying to whisper but getting 38 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: a little too loud. LEVI, sh I don't want Ivan 39 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: your mom to hear me leaving, said Levi's dad. They 40 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: would ask where I'm going, and that would ruin the 41 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 2: whole surprise. 42 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: Sorry, Dad, but I have some. 43 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: New information that definitely needs to be part of our 44 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 2: big surprise, whispered Levi. It turns out that cousin Stella 45 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: was in Ivey's dream. Well, I don't think I'm gonna 46 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 2: find her at the store, laughed Levi's dad. Well, no, 47 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 2: but you could call tt and see if Stella could 48 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 2: come over today, replied Levi. That's a much better idea, 49 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 2: said Levi's dad. I'll give your Anna call when I 50 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: get to the store. It looks like Ivy's doll could 51 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 2: be arriving right now, but the person I talked to 52 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: told me that's only if everything was perfectly with the delivery. 53 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 2: That means no delays or traffic jams. So let me 54 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: head over there so I can get back as soon 55 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: as possible. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you have 56 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 2: Ivy's doll with you and that Stella can make it 57 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 2: over too, said Levi. And if it's not too much 58 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 2: to ask, could you tell t T to stay for 59 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 2: a bit and ask her to bring Mama goa. It 60 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: turns out they were all in Ivy's dream. Wow, said 61 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: Levi's dad, feeling like he was putting together a whole 62 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: other birthday party but only had a couple of hours 63 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 2: to do it. I'll do my best, buddy, Levi's dad 64 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: headed out the door as Levi ran back to keep 65 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 2: listening in on Ivy's dream. What happened next in this 66 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 2: amazing dream, asked Ivy's mom, as Levi got back to 67 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: a sister's bedroom. You mean my best day ever dream, 68 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 2: giggled Ivy. Next, Katie and I and Stella and her 69 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: doll Kayla went to the American Girl Salon. It was 70 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 2: so pretty there and everyone was so nice. They asked 71 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: what we wanted to do with our hair and if 72 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 2: we wanted it to look like Katie and I looked 73 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: at this big book of all these kinds of braids 74 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: and hairstyles. Did you end up going with something totally different, 75 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: like a neon green mohawk or pink and blue purple 76 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: streaks with pomp palm hair clips, asked Ivy's mom. Ivy 77 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: couldn't help but laugh, picturing what she and her doll 78 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: Katy would look like with either of those hairstyles. No, Mommy, 79 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: we both got these really cute braids in the shape 80 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: of a big heart, answered Ivy. Looking more and more excited, 81 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 2: she talked about her dream. Once Ivy and Katie were 82 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 2: all set in the salon chair, Stella and her doll 83 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 2: Kayla were ready to go. They each got a bunch 84 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: of mini braids tied with little ribbons and all different colors. 85 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: Hearing all of this salon talk, Levi started to get worried. 86 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: There's no way Dad or I can make mini braids 87 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 2: tied with little ribbons or a design in someone's hair, 88 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 2: thought Levi. And Dad already left, so I can't ask 89 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: him to bring home a hairstylist. That's when Levi had 90 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 2: the idea that he could ask the only other person 91 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 2: in the house who he knew could do hair to 92 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 2: help him out, his mom. He would just have to 93 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 2: wait to ask her until after his plan all came together, 94 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 2: and hoped she would agree to help. He had a 95 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 2: pretty good feeling that she would, and so he went 96 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 2: back to gathering more information for his big gift. 97 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: After we got our. 98 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 2: Hair done, there was only one other thing to do 99 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: with the salon, said Ivy to her mom with a 100 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 2: little smirk. Get your nails done, answered her mom. Oh no, 101 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 2: that's right, said Ivy. I got smiley faces on my 102 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 2: nails and Katie got the tiniest purple polka dot. This 103 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: dream just keeps getting better and better, said Ivy's mom. 104 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 2: I can't wait to hear what you did next. Ivy 105 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 2: then went on to tell her mom about the fun 106 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 2: day she and Stella and their American Girl dolls had 107 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 2: in New York City. At that point in the dream, 108 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 2: Ivy's mom went along with Stella and Ivy, but Ivy's 109 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: aunt and grandma stayed behind at the American Girls store. Meanwhile, Ivy, 110 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: Ivy's mom, Stella, and their dolls started their trip through 111 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: New York by taking a. 112 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: Horse drawn carriage ride through Central Park. 113 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: After that, they all went to the top of the 114 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 2: Empire State Building and then. 115 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: Took a boat ride to the Statue of Liberty. 116 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 2: Leeby once again was at a loss for how he 117 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: was going to make these very memorable parts of Ivy's 118 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 2: dream come to life. That's when he got creative. He 119 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 2: was great at building things and loved to draw. So 120 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 2: if he couldn't bring his sister to New York City, 121 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 2: he would bring New York City to his sister. 122 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: He would have a lot of work to do, but. 123 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 2: It would be all worth it if he could make 124 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 2: Ivy's best day ever a reality. Wow, you must have 125 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: been tired after all the sight seeing, said Ivy's mom. 126 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: We definitely were, so we headed to our very special hotel, 127 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 2: said Ivy, and when we walked into our room, we 128 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 2: found out that it wasn't a room for just us. 129 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 2: There were special beds and pajamas waiting for our our 130 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 2: American girls too. There were also new pajamas for you, 131 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 2: me and Stella. They were so soft and comfy. 132 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: How fun is that, said Ivy's mom. 133 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 2: So we all changed into our company new pajamas and 134 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 2: ordered some room service, said Ivy. After all, having that 135 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 2: much fun can make you very, very hungry. After hearing that, 136 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 2: Levi thought he was going to have to whip up 137 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: some big menu of food for the next part of 138 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 2: Ivy's dream, but what he heard next brought him a 139 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 2: big sigh of relief. When we called down to the 140 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 2: front desk to order our food, we asked if they 141 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 2: could get us exactly what we had for lunch at 142 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 2: the American Girls store, because it was so. 143 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: Good, said Ivy. 144 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 2: They said that it was no problem at all. Then 145 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 2: no sooner did we hang up the phone. We heard 146 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 2: a knock at our hotel door. 147 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: And the food it was amazing. 148 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: Levi realized as he continued to listen that he would 149 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 2: need to make sure Stella was able to sleep over, 150 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: but he would have to. 151 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: Deal with that. 152 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 2: Later, Ivy's dreams seemed to be wrapping up because Levi 153 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 2: could see her excitement was fading a bit, and now 154 00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 2: she looked a little sad. What's wrong, Ivy asked her mom? 155 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 2: No more fun dream details to share? Pretty much, said Ivy. 156 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 2: She started to tell her mom the last few minutes 157 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: of her dream. After we ate, Stella and I jumped 158 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: on our beds with our dolls. We had a pillow fight, 159 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: and we even made a wish on a star as 160 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 2: we looked out the hotel room's. 161 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: Huge picture window over New York City. 162 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: I of course wished I could have a daylight that 163 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: every day, but I know now that it will never happen. 164 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: Ivy sounded so sad, and it only made leve I 165 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 2: want to make sure he didn't miss this one little detail. 166 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 2: When putting together his sister's best day ever, Stella and 167 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 2: I started feeling really sleepy, so we decided it was 168 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 2: time to go to bed, said Ivy. And where was 169 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 2: I when all of those jumping on beds and pillow 170 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: fights was going on? Giggled Ivy's mom. 171 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: Somehow you managed to sleep through it all, laughed Ivy. 172 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 2: So Stella tucked Caylin too her special bed, and I 173 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: did the same for Katie, and when I went to 174 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 2: kiss her good night, I woke up. A tear rolled 175 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: down Ivy's cheek as she remembered the feeling of her 176 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 2: best day ever dream ending, But then she quickly wiped 177 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: that tier away. She remembered why she was crying. Are 178 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 2: you okay, Ivy asked her mom, giving her daughter a 179 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 2: big hug. Yes, Mommy, I'm crying because I missed my dream. 180 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: It was really the best day ever, said Ivy. But 181 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 2: I have to smile too, because at least I got 182 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 2: to experience it. 183 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: It was really so much fun. 184 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 2: I just wish dreams could come true. Why do you 185 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: wish that, asked her mom. Because dreams are magical, said Ivy. 186 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 2: The things that happen in dreams could never happen in 187 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 2: real life. Oh no, Ivy, magic can happen in real 188 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: life too. Just trust me, began Ivy's mom. If you 189 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 2: dream it, you can make it happen. 190 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:46,479 Speaker 1: LEEVI. I heard his mom's. 191 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: Words and knew he had a lot to do in 192 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 2: a short amount of time, and it had to be perfect. 193 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 2: After all, it was for his sister. Ivy smiled at 194 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: her mom, hopeful that what she had said was true 195 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 2: and that dreams really can come true. Ivy's mom then 196 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 2: to just said that they get their day started and 197 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 2: see if anything magical happens. So they walked downstairs together 198 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: to get some breakfast. As they were making food, Ivy's 199 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 2: mom called for her dad and Levi to join them. 200 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,599 Speaker 2: Levi heard his mom calling and quickly ran into the 201 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 2: kitchen from the playroom. 202 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: Hi Mom, Hi, Ivy. 203 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 2: Dad had to run out for something, and I'm working 204 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 2: on well something, so we won't be around for breakfast, 205 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 2: said Levi, trying not to look or sound suspicious and failing. 206 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: But just so you know, I think lunch is going 207 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 1: to be pretty amazing, so we'll see you then. 208 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 2: Also, I put a do not disturb sign on the 209 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 2: playroom door, so just keep out. Okay, okay, I guess, 210 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 2: said Ivy and her mom. Trust me, It'll all be 211 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 2: worth it, said Levi with a smile as he ran 212 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 2: off to finish his work. After a little while, Levi 213 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 2: and Ivy's dad walked through the front door and asked 214 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: if anyone had seen Levi. He was holding a few 215 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 2: big bags in his hand and did his best to hide. 216 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: Them from view. 217 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: He's in the playroom and he's been a bit suspicious, 218 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 2: just like you come to the it, said Ivy, and 219 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 2: Levi's mom. Oh, don't you worry about how we're acting, 220 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 2: said Levi's dad with a laugh. It'll all be worth 221 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 2: it around lunchtime. Yeah, Levi, I already told us, said Ivy, 222 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 2: getting a little more excited about what the big surprise 223 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 2: could be. She and her mom decided to give Levi 224 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 2: and his dad their space to create whatever they were 225 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: working on, and busy themselves elsewhere around the house. Time 226 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 2: passed and Ivy and her mom put away more party 227 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 2: decorations and cleaned up more things left behind outside after 228 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: the party of the day before. Then, as they started 229 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 2: to feel hungry for lunch, Levi found them in the backyard. 230 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: Thank you for being patient with us, said Levi. I'd 231 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: now like to ask that you both follow me to 232 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 2: the playroom. I think you're going to be really happy 233 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 2: with what's in there, especially you Ivy. At this point, 234 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 2: Ivy thought that maybe her brother did finally get her 235 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 2: something for her birthday, since he didn't give her anything 236 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: the day before, but she could never imagine what was 237 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: waiting behind the playroom door when she opened it. Ready, Dad, 238 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,599 Speaker 2: Levi shouted through the closed door when he reached the 239 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 2: playroom with his mom and sister. Absolutely, come on in, 240 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 2: call back Levi's dad. 241 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: Ivy. 242 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: I'm sorry I didn't give you a birthday present yesterday, 243 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 2: said Levi. You're always so thoughtful and kind with the 244 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: gifts you give me. I just hope you can see 245 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: past it being a daylate and enjoy your best day ever. 246 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 2: As Levi said this, he opened the door to the playroom, revealing. 247 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: To his mom and Ivy what he and his dad 248 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: had been working on all morning. 249 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, shouted Ivy, this looks just like my dream. 250 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: How did you know? How did you know, Levi? 251 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: I was listening to you tell mom all about it 252 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 2: this morning when you got up, began Levi. I listened 253 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 2: to every detail, and Dad helped me make your dream 254 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 2: come to light. 255 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: It's like magic, whispered Ivy to her mom. You were right, 256 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: Dreams do come true. 257 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: Ivy walked further into the playroom and looked at everything 258 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 2: Levi and her dad had done. There was a huge 259 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 2: picture on the wall that looked just like new York 260 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 2: City with tall skyscrapers and cars and people everywhere that 261 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 2: Levi drew. 262 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: He also used his blocks to make some more buildings and. 263 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 2: Scattered his big trucks and cars all around to make 264 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 2: it look more like a real city. Come take a sea, Ivy, 265 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: said Levi as he directed her to the most beautiful 266 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 2: decorated table filled with all the things from her dream 267 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: tea party. And if you look out of the cafe window, 268 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: you'll see Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, and the 269 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 2: Empire State Building, just like in your dream. Wow, you 270 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 2: thought of every detail, Levi said Ivy. I can't thank 271 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 2: you enough. It's like it's like I'm right back in 272 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: my dream, Like I'm sitting in the American Girl Cafe 273 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,959 Speaker 2: in New York City with their delicious cinnamon buns, tasty 274 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 2: tea And what, Ivy, is there something missing? Said Levi 275 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: with a little smirk on his face. He knew exactly 276 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 2: what Ivy was thinking about her new doll. No, everything 277 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: is great, Levi, it's just in my dream. I had 278 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 2: my brand new American Girl doll Katie with me. But 279 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 2: I know there's no way you could get her here today. 280 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 2: Mom and Dad already ordered her, and she's just taking 281 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 2: a little while to get here, said Ivy. But remember, 282 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 2: Levi said with a smile. 283 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: Dreams do come true if you believe in them. 284 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: Then he stepped to the side to show Ivy, who 285 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 2: was sitting at the head of the tea party table 286 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 2: waiting for her. Katie shouted Ivy as she ran over 287 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 2: and picked up her new doll. She's absolutely perfect. You're 288 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 2: the best brother ever and this is, without a doubt, 289 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 2: the best day ever. I couldn't be happier to hear that, Ivy, 290 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 2: said Levi, giving his sister a hug. Happy birthday, and 291 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 2: I promised not to forget your gift ever again. And 292 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 2: speaking of gifts, there's a lot more to this, Levi 293 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: poured Ivy t As she sat down with Katie, he 294 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 2: gave her a cinnamon roll and then showed her a 295 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 2: few different outfit choices for her new doll. Then Levi 296 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 2: pulled his mom aside and asked her a question before 297 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 2: telling Ivy that she and her doll would be getting 298 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 2: their hair and nails done too, just like in my dream, 299 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: said Ivy, not believing all the great stuff that Levi 300 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 2: had planned. Levi and Ivy's mom had just agreed to 301 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 2: be the hairstylist and nail tech for the day and 302 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 2: couldn't have been happier to help. But what Ivy didn't 303 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 2: know she had a few special guests that would be 304 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 2: joining her. How could this day get any better? Asked Ivys. 305 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 2: She enjoyed her sinmon roll with her new American girl doll, 306 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: and in just a second she would get her answer 307 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 2: the doorbell rang and leave by rest out of the room. 308 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 2: When he came back in, he had the last part 309 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: of Ivy's best day ever. Surprised with him no way, 310 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 2: exclaimed Ivy as she turned around to see her cousin 311 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: Stella walking into the playroom. Ivy, I'm so happy to 312 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 2: see you, exclaimed Stella. 313 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: Happy late birthday. 314 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: I'm sorry I couldn't be here yesterday, but I'm here 315 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,359 Speaker 2: now with my American girl doll Kyla. 316 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: And guess what, We're having a sleepover tonight. 317 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 2: Ivy was so overwhelmed by the awesome news that she 318 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 2: had almost forgot to say hello to her te Te 319 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 2: and her Mamma Go, who had driven Stella over. She 320 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 2: hugged them all and thanked Levi and her mom and 321 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 2: dad once again.
