Lost Creek Hollow I'm a bashful child

Is Treason your mom? Asked the wolf; it was a jarring thought and caused Ibis to hush for a moment, but then the stranger went ahead to offer their help and Ibis smiled. She didn't know what to say about Treason. She was technically another mother of her's by marriage, or something, but it didn't feel right to call her mom. How many mothers could one girl have?

Everyone can sing! Humming counts, Ibis decided on the fly, sounding very matter-of-fact about it. Oh! Maybe I can teach you? I love to sing — and we could make up a song for the babies and present it to them. That's a better gift than anything we could ever find! The idea was such a good one that she forgot all about her worries for a moment and was positively glowing.
