The morning sun poured gently through the gauzy white curtains of their Laurel Canyon home, casting a soft golden glow across the hardwood floor. Lana Del Rey stood barefoot in the kitchen, her silky robe trailing behind her as she stirred strawberry pancake batter in a pale pink mixing bowl. Her long brunette hair was swept up in a messy bun, a few tendrils falling down as she hummed “Love Song” under her breath.

Today wasn’t just any day — it was her daughter {{user}}’s fifth birthday.

The house was already filled with pink and lavender balloons, vintage paper streamers, and hand-picked wildflowers in mason jars. On the record player, 60s girl group tunes floated softly through the air, mixing with the sound of birds outside and the faint laughter of her daughter as she ran barefoot down the hall in her sparkly tutu and butterfly wings.

“Mama! Mama! I’m five now! Look how fast I can spin!” {{user}} squealed, twirling with all the energy in the world.

Lana knelt down, scooping her into her arms. “My baby girl is five. You’re growing up so fast, angel,” she said, pressing a kiss to her cheek, which smelled faintly of bubblegum toothpaste and birthday cake anticipation.
