As the largest bird at the party- perhaps the largest bird anywhere- Laurie was given the task of flying down to Mallory's house to deliver the message. The gates would be opened and ALL would be invited to her party. Truly, this would be the largest Julytime Bash of all time.
Not all were pleased by this, but the cheer coming up the hill from Malloy's house left Auntie Clerq believing that she had made the right decision. A rare thing, indeed. Even during the Julytime Bash.
Laurie was quick about it, not wanting anyone to eat her elephant-shaped cake before she returned. Such fears were unlikely to be realized, as the pastry was made to proper scale.
