Rae's sister is named Elm White, also known as Shining Star, and she "hatched" just last week.
Elm White is a fancier name for Shining Star.
The name was given by Yale Allen; isn't Wyatt Wright's son named Elijah? Yale had once overheard that Elijah meant snowflake, and coincidentally, Rae's full name, Luna, means moon. So, Yale casually asked if there was a name for a star.
Stars have many other names, and Elm White is one of them.
In the afternoon, Miss Watson came to the hospital, carrying big and small bags full of baby girl clothes.
Looking at the mountain of clothes piled on the table, Selena Flores asked, "Why did you buy so much?"
"There were just too many cute dresses; I couldn't help myself."
You can't fault Miss Watson; her desire to dress up had no outlet. Wyatt's son, Elijah, and Levi Wright's son, Raindrop, were both boys, so she couldn't buy them cute dresses. Usually, she could only satisfy her craving by buying Lolita outfits for Simba.
A small digression.
