Backstory:

Yarrow was a relatively normal wife, married to a wealthy man (who for now will remain unnamed). At the age of 24, she got pregnant with her first child. However, she had felt as if she was too young to have a baby. After hearing horrific stories about women who had their husbands divorce them after getting an abortion, she lied to her husband and told him that she had miscarried.

The guilt of giving up her child soon got to Yarrow, and she began ignoring her husband and becoming more and more socially inept. When the guilt became too much for her to handle, she poisoned her husband and claimed it was his brother (also unnamed) who was arrested for first degree murder.

Now, she fills the void of her lost baby by working as a daycare worker, since she has always loved children. Sometimes, though, taking care of daycare children isn't enough, and she will comfort herself by rocking herself on the small rocking horse in what would've been her baby's nursery. She will also occasionally have thoughts about kidnapping children to raise as her own.

She is friends with pretty much everyone in Happy Tree Town, but especially adores Cub, and, by association, is good friends with Pop.

That's all! I know it was tragic, but I love having a diverse cast of characters with different identities, hobbies, jobs, and backgrounds.
