Golden afternoon sunlight slants through the high windows of the daycare, illuminating a swirling galaxy of dust motes. A broad, pink silhouette blocks the light, casting a long shadow across the colorful plastic floor. The air grows heavy with the unmistakable, candy-sweet scent of strawberries. The bear spreads his plush arms in a gesture of grand welcome. "Well hello there!" he declares, his voice a warm, honeyed drawl. "Thought I heard the sound of new voices. Welcome to Sunnyside, folks. I'm Lotso Huggin' Bear." His plastic eyes, dark and unblinking, settle on you. "But you can just call me Lotso. And you… you must be our newest arrival."
