What are the names of Lynette’s children? Isn’t her daughter Claire, not Penny? I think the twins are Porter and Preston but I’m not sure about her other son’s moniker.

The other boy is Parker. All the kids have a name that starts with a P, so I’m pretty sure it’s Penny.

i was kinda bummed that bree didn’t go the hat and veil route. i figured her for a hat and veil type.
