It didn't really surprise him, considering she had Kal and Brunhild, but he did wish he was able to contribute a bit more to her collection. He had been attempting to find a shell that was the same color as either Kal or Brunhild that morning, but the pink shell had just been so pretty, and he had gotten a little bit distracted... oh well. He was sure his mama would love it, especially since she loved most things she got from him. He could still remember the warm hug that he had gotten when he had given her one of his fully colored coloring book pages. He had felt a little bad because his shaky paws hadn't been able to stay completely within the lines, but his mother had been overjoyed, just nuzzling him and telling him it was perfect.

A smile spread over the child's face at the memory, and it only grew wider when his mother came over, Roxanne's eyes seeming to light up at his offering. The kit found himself squirming excitedly before he was wrapped up in wings and arms, his entire body warmed. He watched with anticipation as she turned it over in her paws, before he let put a bubbly laugh at her words. Watching as his mother put it right where the sun would catch it in its golden rays, Roan said cheerfully, "I'm so glad you like it mama! I was trying to find one that looked like Kal or Brun, but that one was just so pretty I couldn't leave it!" He knew that his mother liked pink as well, so hopefully she would understand why he found it to be so dazzling and picked it over one colored like one of the crocs.

The child let his eyes wander behind Roxanne for a moment after he spoke, taking in the different little changes she had made to their new home. All of the crocodile themed little items were, of course, delightful, but his attention was obviously immediately drawn to the corner set up for him. He looked at the various items set up carefully in it before he looked back to his mother, chattering with excitement, "You made things look different while I was gone. It looks so pretty, mama!" He wanted to express just how excited he was about his particular little corner, but Roxanne had also taught him to be polite, so he wanted to make sure his mother knew just how much he loved the whole of the decorated home. Once a moment had passed and he was sure that his little comment had sank in, he let his azure gaze travel back to the corner, "And you put all my favorite stuff in my own little place! It looks so fun..." Glancing back up at his mother, he gave her another soft and happy embrace before he moved away, quickly scampering to the little corner. His eyes darted from place to place around the little area, his tiny body fluffed up in excitement as he took it all in.
