Ladybug was babysitting tonight. She was very good at it, and kids liked her. Joisy was going to help Lady D. Vanity design a new dress for her neighbor, Teacup, who was going to be hosting a party later. It was her first party, so Lola was helping her to plan it.

Joisy zipped up her orange jacket and headed out the door. She opened the door to her aqua car and got in. Hesitantly, she started up the engine and backed out of the driveway.

She arrived at Lady D.'s studio awhile later. She parked her car around the back and made her way to the front.

The door was unlocked so Joisy walked in and hung her jacket on the rack. She walked over and sat next to Lady D., who was staring at a peice of paper with a flimsy skirt drawn on it.

"I already started, Joisy." Vanity began."But I cannot come up with a top to go with this skirt!"

"Long sleeves and buttons?" Though she once wanted to be a clothing coordinatore, Joisy's fashion senses were nothing compared to Lady D. Vanity's.

Lady D. looked at Joisy. "What shape are the buttons?"

Joisy picked up a jar of assorted buttons on her friend's desk and looked through it. "Can't we just pick a couple we like from here?"

"Mismatching buttons?" Lady D. thought for a moment. "That goes against everything I believe in BUT.. For you, Joisy, I will."

Joisy smiled. "There was a nice leaf one in here somewhere.. There's an awful lot of clear ones in here. Oh, we could put all clear ones on the shirt, and then make a little matching jacket with a button of our choice for the clasp."

Lady D. nodded. "This I am liking. But maybe instead of a that leaf button, we use this umbrella one?"

"Whatever you want, Dee Dee."

"Than this we shall do! I already made of these skirts and it's in the back. Could you go get it while I find the rest of this fabric and the thread I used to make it?"

Joisy nodded.

She headed to a concrete room with dozens of boxes stacked up. Looking up, Joisy realized that the skirt Lady D. has made was on the top shelf. "How did that get up there?"

She jumped up, trying to reach it. On the third leap, she grabbed onto it. However, it pulled a basket of other Lady D. items down with it.

"Is everything okay back there?" Lady D. called.

"Yes!" Joisy called back, pulling a unraveling fabric roll off of her head.

As Joisy began to put threads and pin cushions back in the box, she came across a baby blue journal with duckies, saftey pins, teddy bears and blocks, the works, all on the cover. In the center were pink, cursive letters that spelled out "Baby Book".

"Oh.. I wonder if there are any pictures of Baby Dee Dee in here.."

Joisy opened the first page. There was a a space that read "_'s Baby Book" But there was no name in the blank. Confused, Joisy flipped to the next page.

"If your reading this, then you've realized that this is not my baby book. I bought it for the child I could never have. As a teenager, I was always very fashionable, but I also had a secret love for trains and train accessories. I began took up the task of becoming a steamstress and designer, so I could come out with a line of baby clothes. I had a love, but he didn't want to bare a child with me. Heartbroken as I was, I stayed. My line of baby clothes became more than just that, and no one ever suspected a thing."

Joisy wiped a tear away.

"Are you okay, Joisy?"

"Yes!" Joisy tried not to show sorrow and pity in her voices as she put the box back and came running with the skirt.
